Grammy Award-Winning Musician LeAnn Rimes on Dealing with a "Lack of Joy"

In this episode of Scan My Brain, Grammy award-winning musician ‪@leannrimes‬ visits Dr. Daniel Amen at Amen Clinics to get her brain scanned and find some answers to her recent emotional struggles. LeAnn discusses some of the traumatic events in her past that may still be lingering in her brain, and Dr. Amen reveals these physical manifestations in LeAnn's brain SPECT scans. Dr. Amen then goes over some of the strategies that can improve both LeAnn's thought patterns and the physical function of her brain.
How can someone with a million-watt smile, a powerhouse singing voice, and wild success feel so empty, so blah, so ho-hum? Just ask Grammy Award winner LeAnn Rimes. The superstar singer, actress, and author has spoken publicly about dealing with a lack of motivation, a shortage of energy, anxious thoughts, and a serious lack of joy in her life. To help her understand why, LeAnn visited Amen Clinics to get a brain scan and talked about it in an episode of Scan My Brain with Daniel Amen, MD. Her brain scan revealed some surprises about dopamine, depression, and anxiety.
Like many young people, LeAnn grew up with a lot of stress. Stress can take many forms. For some kids, it’s due to neglectful parents, domestic violence, abuse, food insecurity, bullying, or other issues. For LeAnn, it took shape in her teenage years when at the age of 16 she sued her father, who was her manager at the time, and her record label.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate that she is sharing her story with the world. Blessings to everyone with health and happiness.

I totally agree...I love this playlist of videos!

[@janetpartyka5968]

I have a TREMENDOUS amount of respect for LeAnn. The fact that she is discussing with the world the traumatic events that are causing her to be depressed and not happy is HUGE. It is difficult enough to get therapy and share your feelings with one person let alone the whole world. She will save lives because of this interview. Keep up the good work LeAnne.

Well said! I’ve always loved Leann, I knew she was going through something with a record label, I just didn’t know what! Bless her heart! I wonder if her dad signed her into that record deal with label! I hope she finds extreme happiness and does give more of her amazing talent! God Bless her and family

I feel like she is me. Have to force myself to shower once a week and brushing my teeth is overwhelming. I feel like I’m crazy! My life is joyless!

[@ignoranceisbliss988]

Ohhhhh, I can relate very well to the problems you describe. And I have found that to improve the situation for yourself, you should make a goal to do these things, because you are of value to everyone in society (and take showers at a frequency that suits you, and brush your teeth twice a day at least, please. If you don't manage to meet your goal, you are no better off than before, but the point is you tried !!!! And that's what matters! And please look after your body better to help it become healthier (for your sake, and then you will feel better too). That is, please make it a priority. And please put aside all your anxieties/distractions/depression for the time being. i.e. what's the difference in mixing things up a little? No hassle at all for yourself! It's important that you do these routines and fit them in, since you've managed to spend time to share something about yourself that you wish to improve, so why not improve?! And of course you deserve better for yourself! Don't be too fussed, (brush with light pressure at a point where you find it comfortable and brush away!) and do these things you mentioned with care, and you will feel happier! Let me know if this helps. If it doesn't help, send me a reply and i might be able to suggest something else. (I've been through a very similar experience). But please care about yourself more and more and more and more.....don't ever stop!! never stop caring about yourself and your needs (and you'll get back on track sooner than you think).

[@mikelong651]

How much did it costs?

[@lanebashford3982]

I've always thought most of us could easily get by with settling for "contentment", not happiness. Happy all the time or throughout one's day would be exhausting. No one is that happy. But simply being content gives us more of an even keel. It's also more achievable for most. Thanks, LeAnn, for sharing this with us. Gives me something to think about while I settle for contentment and peace in my own life.

[@bootsarmstrong8421]

LeAnn, the solution is simple; doing something to help others, frequently-for free. Take the focus off yourself. When you try to make other people happy, you will find joy.

[@karishort1891]

I love her so much and I also relate to her!!! Sometimes, it feels like my brain is my own enemy because I have a hard time controlling my thoughts 💯

[@skippy7208]

Hi! You can look at Eckhart Tolle videos for help with this 👍

[@WH2012]

Given that LeAnn is 40 years old (which is NOT old, but rather a different stage of life), it's possible that she is entering peri-menopause. Hormones are changing DRAMATICALLY through this phase. This, in and of itself, can be contributing to her symptoms, as well as adrenal fatigue. I greatly appreciate Dr. Amen and believe he provides a tremendous service to his patients, but this is a very one-dimensional perspective on what could be at the source of her distress and symptoms. In short, there is more than one way to skin a cat.

[@Trenchant468]

Point taken, though bear in mind she has been in this struggle lifelong.

[@AA-cp8ry]

Absolutely

[@ernestgutierrez6428]

But wouldn’t a medical professional determine that and told her? It seems to me that would be one of the first areas of physiology to look into

[@dkdoodle]

@@ernestgutierrez6428 many doctors don’t know much about menopause and especially not peri menopause as it’s not well known or studied.

My teeth are suffering from my depression and now my anxiety of my self neglect prevents me from going to the dentist. I’m a bloody mess!

[@deesfreespirityoga4945]

Go to the dentist!

[@christinerussell1132]

One breath at a time, one foot in front of the other, you are Valuable ❣️

[@ignoranceisbliss988]

Just tell the dentist you had an anxiety issue that led to self-neglect regarding your teeth, and so now you need some attention to your teeth. (the dentist will understand the context and pay attention to the teeth). It's okay! Don't feel embarrassed! It's not like you wanted your depression to have this affect on you. They will not be surprised by what they see. And it's better that you go now, rather than later (because then they will wonder why you procrastinated, isn't it?). i.e. you have a good reason to go now, so go now, please. Don't wait, otherwise the dentist will be upset that you didn't go sooner (i.e. think of it from the dentist's point of view. the healthier the teeth, the better they can manage it). if you wait, they have a harder job to do. (and then they'll be upset that they weren't able to help you sooner, isn't it?). So, please go now, otherwise they will get grumpy only because you procrastinated, not because of the depression you were under. You've expressed that you want to go, so go. You've got no reason not to go. They will be happy that you came as soon as you could manage, so that they can help you! ♥

[@eyejswije8860]

For some of us , During the pandemic, the face mask helped shield dental neglect. Don't despair, there are plenty of folks at this point. Or at least those who floss their teeth only just before seeing the dentist

Due to being part of the entertainment industry. SRA abuse….She is a real talent, years ago her voice blew me away the first time I heard her. Blessings for LeAnn.

[@artismyheart4886]

It always made me so mad how the media and public treated her during the affair/scandal with Eddie. They vilified her so much, yet Eddie wasn’t not blamed as much as her. I believe she carries a lot of guilt about how it all went down. This woman was robbed of her childhood by a greedy Father who wanted to profit off her talent.She married young, not surprising, as I can totally relate to wanting someone to love you. She hadn’t had a normal teenage dating phase so she clung to the first guy who showed her love and a sense of security. She is a brave young lady for talking about this. I wish her the best, she deserves it.

[@NHSborn]

Patients confidentiality is paramount when in therapy like this. I agree he shouldn’t be name dropping other patients full stop. That’s their business to share.

[@cgimovieman]

If I were on that couch, I’d be saying “Wait, can we stop for a minute. Why are you so mellow and calm? Don’t you have any empathy for me? Why aren’t you showing any emotion and getting angry saying “Oh my GOD! That sucks! I cannot BELIEVE what you went through!” That would sure make me feel better.

Pick one goal to do in a day. Here is an example: find every pencil you have in the house and sharpen them. It does not matter if it takes you 5 min or 8 hours, it’s just that you finish that one goal in a day. The feeling of that one accomplishment is joyous. Choose small, simple things to do and accomplish to start and I am telling you it works!

Sorry but should he be discussing Beiber being on his couch at all? Let alone the details. That's a breach of HIPPA laws surely.

[@Maverick154]

You're the best Leanne

[@MrModel--CAPTURED-ON-FILM]

I am from Florida, born & raised about an hour north of where LeAnn comes from. I was always privately proud that a 'local girl' could achieve so much. She had talent that could not be repressed. And that is something, because in my hometown area I have known other persons / females with talent and, try as they may, they just can't seem to break out of the local singing-in-a-bar scene or at a beach restaurant for the evening crowd. Even one or two who were handed an incredible offer from a local wealthy individual to fund their first CD - the local female artist would blow that opportunity by smothering the chance with their own massive ego, despite having a pretty great singing voice. So, cheers to LeAnn, for her accomplishments. I can also understand 'why' she might be dealing with so very much right now, as I, too, come from a family that offered challenges to a young boy growing up. Sometimes I'm not certain how I am still standing. I do find peace with my own personal spirituality, that which brings me comfort. I have also learned, and this may sound funny, but what goes in my tummy has a lot to do with my strength and happiness. Woody Allen, when he 'made it', admitted that he withdrew into his home and ate pies all day, every day. I'm certain they were tasty. But not nutritious. Eating / drinking healthy meals goes a long way in helping my body, my mind, feel strong. Giving me the strength to get up each day and always try to do something a little bit better than I did the day before. Maybe my own insight might offer some inspiration. I wish you, LeAnn, the best.

[@trixie9777]

YES! Exactly!

[@vancouverislandandthething3945]

I wasn't sure but watching her sing Spaceship I couldn't help but think the song was intensely personal. Everything she says resonated.

[@psychegoddessoflight9358]

I suffer from anhedonia (lack of pleasure/joy) as well, with ADHD (especially executive functioning), and finally had a genetic brain scan that revealed an overactive enzyme that essentially eats up all of my dopamine very soon after it’s released. I’m on Vyvanse too, and it’s been a literal lifesaver in conjunction with bupenophrine (Suboxone, prescribed off label for severe depression). Still, getting out of bed is a daily struggle and I anticipate the sweet release of death with immense longing. One day at a time...

[@amythinks]

This guy is super proud of the fact that he treated Justin Bieber.

[@betsyveritas1055]

Dear LeAnn, This is a huge subject & l'm going to tell my own abbreviated story as quickly as possible. I'm a mystic & grew up in incredible suffering - sexual assaults by my eldest brother for 8 yrs beginning at 5. My sister murdered me at 3 & l was not allowed to stay on the other side, tho l was there for many hours. She continued trying to kill me every year & a half after that, until we were grown. The stress was way beyond bearable. I got through a lot of it by dissociating. I struggled into adulthood with depression, anxiety & so on. Since l was 3, l have wanted nothing more than to go back to heaven & stay there. Nothing but love & goodness there, while this earth realm gets uglier by the day. I think lack of joy is a normal response to such a harsh environment. Especially for someone so deeply intelligent, spiritual & loving, as l suspect you are. I think the best we can do is to protect ourselves from outside forces, guard our lives & privacy. Meditation helps some, slow breath yoga & acceptance of where you are. I'm so very sorry that you're suffering. There is an end to it. I'm nearly 71 now & look forward to going home, because l feel that it is our only true home. I began crying as soon as l saw the caption under your photo w/ Dr Amen. I know you suffer. I think most of us, if we're able to be honest, are suffering. This world is not a pretty place as it mostly once was when we were growing up. There was good & bad, but people were much more connected, loving & so on. Now, we are a world of avoiders, bullies & people living lives through the internet. Please take care in every way possible. There's a new brain wave therapy that apparently helps depression incredibly. Nothing like shock. You have the resources to find & use it. I've heard only good about it. Much love to you, Betsy

[@psychegoddessoflight9358]

Hi Betsy- I’ve crossed over too, and similarly can hardly wait to return home (although I recall having begged to return to this life I’ve always loathed, because I remembered why I incarnated here in the first place). My heart goes out to you and your tenacity inspires me to keep going. God bless, and see you on the other side, angel. ps. The brightest lights attract the darkest/most “vampiric” energies, as our spirit, still connected to God, provides them with the (aetheric) energy they need to survive. But that was always designed to be a temporary arrangement. 💝🙏

I want to watch a before and AFTER video of how they are NOW! Did his plan work for them? Does the scan show the end result of what he said it would? I am fascinated with Dr Amen. I hope his clinic is the real deal. I am literally sitting on his clinic in Waukegan (Chicago) with my 24 yo daughter. I am hoping to get answers with her ADD & CAPD. She struggles everyday. Has been on/off meds since she was diagnosed at age 14. Unfortunately I don’t have the money to sit in with Dr Amen but I hope this clinic here will help her. VERY expensive but I would always regret not coming. Prayers we get help and answers to her health where she can lead a “normal” life. 🙏🏻

Hello how're you doing?

[@sowhat5939]

I never heard of this scan

[@lucianobarrantes]

The dr amen show on network tv would be great .

[@BrighamYen]

No it's pretty lame

[@daisyq2501]

It’s too bad Dr Amen checks celebrities only. I would love it if he can check my child. He is the real deal.

How can someone who isn’t rich or a celebrity and has state insurance get a brain scan for their teenager

What was the other supplement he said you shouldn’t take with theanine? He said if you take it together with ? (Was it gaba something?) it would be a fire for wine drinkers?

[@8656737s]

I would love to see this guy ❤ I need help.

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hi how're you doing?

[@marygooding6550]

[@ronf3954]

I really need this kind of help, following a TBI and four strokes.... but I don't know how to get help. I am so depressed, and my mind doesn't work. I have no drive, no determination, no joy. I can't afford anything because I haven't been able to work. I feel it's hopeless.

[@debrawallace4542]

Why is this doctor talking about other patients he has helped. No doctor does that!

[@deniselebeau9874]

I agree……I was shocked by that. Unless they sign a waiver and then he is putting it out on KZbin. I find something strange about this entire process.

[@lkleeberg]

Marketing. He’s selling something or his brand, his affiliations, lectures, etc..He may have fantastic science based info that is efficacious but the promoting is more important to him than confidentiality. Perhaps he’s trying to build rapport, and he did get us to watch. Much respect to her for sharing.

It's on you tube. HIPPA doesn't quite apply when you've put your doctor visit on social media. I appreciate that she and Justin are exposing how they were abused by the music industry and how that abuse has affected their mental health years later. It is a great lesson on what stress does to brain development.

​@Pixie_damsel doesn't apply when you've put it on You Tube.

[@deniselebeau9874]

@Pixie_damsel There are many other doctors that feel that this is a scam and that the scans can’t possibly show what he is saying that they are….. I googled it and there are plenty of articles about this process and if it is ethical. All that I know is that just your average person could not afford his treatment nor would insurance cover this process.

[@thedaagatep9736]

My life has been so disconnected. What can I do to begin unwavling this mess?!

[@kimkhalaj7613]

Check out The Wim Hof Method!!!

[@leeleescraps]

I don’t think he should be bringing up other clients even if famous. It’s not professional.

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hi how're you doing?

[@boabglen]

What kind of spect was used to get mental health diagnosis? PET-CT (Radiotracers required) 18F-FDG 18F-NaF 18F-FET 68Ga-PSMA 68Ga-DOTATATE
