The problem with Dr Gabor Mate is he makes too much sense, too simply - there's not enough money in it, or need for PhDs. It takes only observation and reflection to connect the dots, but most of us don't. Gabor Mate is one of the most vital voices on the planet right now.

[@denise2169]

Thank you, Dr Matè. I am 71, and through listening to your explanations about childhood trauma and how it influences who we are, I have been able to reclaim and honour my emotions and the parts of myself that I buried so long ago, to be able to survive. I now realise that I was a workaholic from a very young age, because I never felt ‘good enough’, even though I had parents who tried to do the best they could. I had other issues too, and now when I am triggered, I go back to my childhood to understand the trigger and then I can let myself feel the emotions that I could not release until now. Letting myself feel all these buried emotions has been amazing and is helping me to be my real self. Nature gave us all of our emotions to inform us on how to react. We just need to listen to these.

I worked for eighteen years as a psychotherapist in a therapeutic prison. The cause of offending behaviour is clearly rooted in childhood trauma. The quote at the end from John O'Donahue; "Our biography is not our full identity. There is a place in the soul where we are not wounded, and that place is always there." is an absolute truism. In offender rehabilitation, helping offenders to connect with that place is the beginning of their process of change.

Dr Mate is so right about the disconnect between medicine and the evidence. I looked up Richard Bentall and loved this quote from an article in 'The Guardian' 'Bentall says people in his profession often struggle to know themselves. “There’s that old joke about two psychologists meeting and one says to the other: ‘You’re all right, how am I?’” he says. “I don’t think anybody ever studies psychology and successfully uses it to fix themselves.” I know that Dr Mate states himself that he still has struggles, but oh how he his helping so many people through their struggles, me included and for which I truly thank him.

He has himself experienced so much pain and so many ailments that he is the walking proof that one can heal the disconnection from our Self.

I wish I knew about Gabor Mate before I had my children. They need to teach these to pregnant mothers during the antenatal classes. Had I known what I know now I would’ve got psycho therapy before having children and healed my own childhood traumas. They need to get rid of programmes like Supernanny who I almost followed, thank God I couldn’t be bothered with a naughty step. And teach more about conscious parenting and importance of emotional attachment in the early years and it’s importance on babies brain development. Women need more emotional support by the culture we live in.

[@josephtein3835]

I've listened to many of Gabor's talks on KZbin, dozens of hours. I understand much better about addiction and trauma. I'm seeing more clearly how we live in a disconnected culture that promotes mental and physical dis-ease that isn't just rooted in physical factors. Gabor spells out these things very clearly, based on his experiences as a doctor as well as his own life. Listening to his talks has also opened my eyes to the dysfunction and neglect I experienced in my own family, so I can see much more clearly where my parents neglected and deprived me emotionally ... and at the same time I can forgive them better because I think "what did they know?" and "they had no clue, look how they grew up." The thing I'm missing in all of Gabor's talks is where do we go from here? He gives us an excellent in-depth analysis of the problems and how they came about, but I hear no success stories. I would love to hear stories of people who overcome their emotional trauma, neglect, and disconnection and are living at their full potential. Gabor says "healing is possible" in his talk here. Great! Can you show us what it looks like?

[@tringa9969]

Therapy with the help of psychedelics if needed… I have healed after 6 years of deep work with my therapist, its a lot of work but very worth it in the end

[@chadlyblomme]

I've seen numerous talks, podcasts related to the this book and heard him speak about numerous practices an individual can take up: therapy, reading/videos on self development/psychology/spirituality, exercise, yoga, meditation, making the efforts to form healthy friendships , relationships, meetup groups, political/community groups, etc etc. stumble along at first perhaps but taking steps in these directions inevitably is worth it. Wishing you well on your path^^

[@lexqbeanable]

Honestly... I think he is still on that path himself...where to go from here... I'd suggest spiritual teaching... Mooji, Eckhart Tolle and Byron Katie have helped me. And my relationship with the creator has always been solid. We can't undo the past but we're not supposed to. There is a way to be at peace with it all✌🏾Be blessed

[@bellakrinkle9381]

I began in my mid twenties because I felt shortchanged by my parental family. Then, at University I majored in psychology and learned about Authenticity. That, I decided would be my goal. I was sixteen when a boyfriend gave me a book called "Freud's Dreams and Reflections" or Freud's Interpretation of Dreams; I did not understand one word of the book, yet I intuitively knew that I must learn to interpret my sleep dreams. Many years later I began Psychoanalysis as training Analysand for a Psychiatrist in training to become a Psychoanalyst. Again, many years later I began reading Carl Jung's writings. Perhaps a good place to begin one's understanding of oneself is to look into Jung's writings. His Shadow theory will get the serious person on an individual path. However, be prepared for serious work. Best wishes to all enquiring minds.

I have received so much vitriol from mental health professionals for promoting yours Richard Schwartz and Bessel's way of helping people. I'm a retired psychotherapist and know that your methods work. It's kinda heartbreaking to think that these people are working with/ further harming people. I'd say you wouldn't believe the hostility from them in the face of solid evidence of how effective your ways of working are. However I suspect that as trailblazers you have all had your fair share of kickback too. I'm sure you have, especially with regard to using psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. Anyway as you say you can lead a horse to water. We need to do what we can. I will continue. Looking forward to your book with Daniel re adult kids, this is so needed by so many.

Wow. Around 5:00 and following is a profound insight. We still invoke the philosophers gone by as if their theories have relevance to us in today's culture when in fact they could only be speaking from their own reality. Gabor sheds a laser light not only on this perspective but in fact his entire premise is that we can only move forward to a healthier society and individuals through nothing less than acceptance of a whole new paradigm. Rather than seeming daunting, that feels refreshing and possible. At last.

He passed away suddenly from a sudden heartbroken attack His trauma triggered flash backs for me which almost paralysed me with shock I am now in therapy & understanding why being a survivor of domestic violence, exactly why & how I had disassociated with myself in order to survive You are my gift , a legacy given to me by a my baby brother, we grew up in a very violent home, I was his nurturing Mother figure & it was like he reverted back prior to his passing & returned to me during lockdown and restrictions, he was alone & four days dead before someone found him on his kitchen floor I developed psychosis and am now on meds, which I don't like I'm struggling to accept how this man, my baby passed away alone without anyone to be there for him I am following your talks & you have helped me tremendously So bless my brother, thank the forces that be that we both found the gift of you Thank you

Wow. Heartbreaking and amazing. The amazing part is the love that you and your baby brother shared. He trusted you and you took such good care of his heart. That's an amazing love 💕. Do you listen to any spiritual teaching? I listen to Eckhart Tolle and Mooji for guidance in this life. The other reply you got about the mushrooms, well that sounds good too 😊, I haven't tried them. Anyway God bless you dear, you should feel good every day knowing that you were there for your dear brother when he needed you most. Thank God for you!!!!! I believe that you will see him again but I know everyone doesn't believe that. I also believe that he is still present in your life just in a different way (I also listen to Anita moorjani) . You did all you could do dear, let that give you some peace. I think you can be free of all the pain that you're holding and peace and contentment are still in the cards for you❤️. I will say a prayer for you. I wish you the best!!

I am an orthodox monk, so I am saying this from a very specific point of view. Doctor Gabor is talking about things that the holy fathers have already addressed. Problem is, very few people (everywhere, but especially in the church) understand how they are harming, traumatising people around them on a daily basis. What a priest used to offer, and is still supposed to offer, is that safe environment that does not judge, but lets you express yourself, and through understanding, fight and heal these traumas that have been inflicted upon us all. On totally different roads and from very different reading lists (so to say), I am glad I have found common ground with this (recently discovered) treasure of a man, which I believe is doing the work of God through the experience and understanding he is sharing. God bless you, and as you already know, keep doing the right thing by adressing these issues of our modern society! We need a different understanding of ourselves and everything around, and the good doctor has found the way! God bless you all

May doctors of the lauded western tradition, aka MDs, listen with depth to this wise man. May all MDs---especially those who experienced childhood emotional neglect and abandonment--wake up to how your emotional cavern not only drives your addiction to work but also numbs you from the love of your spouse and family, who have waited for you, forever, to come back home.
