Doctor REACTS to The Simpsons | Psychiatrist Analyzes "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge" | Dr Elliott

[@restlessraving3528]

There's an episode I always remember of the Simpsons called "The Strong Arms of Ma" where Marge gets robbed on the street and develops Agoraphobia. Might make an interesting episode if you're ever looking for more. Thanks for the video. Always gives me a chance to enjoy shows from a different perspective.

[@katrinaquezada42]

The phrase “no knife games at the table” and the response “don’t worry I’m not touching your precious tablecloth” has been a weekly thing said in my house for decades and decades.

[@LovedayJourno]

I know it's not the most important takeaway but I've always loved the joke with the "cake straw". The fact that he carries it in a fancy case and just tosses it afterwards anyway always cracks me up. :)

[@Revelryproject]

Interesting thing to know: it is canon that Homer does actually have a crayon lodged in his frontal lobe! :) (Season 12 episode 9 "HOMR" if you wanna check it out :) )

[@queenstown9534]

Generally, anything after season nine is considered non-canon as the writing team was largely changed from season 10 onwards.

[@kaitlyn__L]

@@queenstown9534 some people think only the seasons Groening actually worked on count. Some think the cutoff is season 7, not 9. Etc

[@digapygmy70]

Love these Simpsons videos! I think you should do the one where Marge has a breakdown (Homer Alone) or the one where Lisa turns into a bad girl after getting back an aptitude test which says she should be a homemaker (Separate Vocations). The latter is really interesting, because while Lisa turns into a bad girl due to her test results, Bart turns into a junior cop because of his! Just a really great episode all around.

[@Melissa0774]

The invitation to Otto's wedding was written on a rolling paper. I can't believe it took me that long to finally realize that.

[@VMichaelLazar]

In the US, there are separate judicial trials for competency where court is held to determine whether a person should be held against their will for medical/psychiatric treatment or isolation/quarantine. This is usually a single judge specialized in family and medical case law. But, I suppose some states might have panels for section 8 review (which are state level codes for public health). You can see another example of this in Miracle on 34th Street (1947). Historical examples are the isolation of Mary Mallon for typhus in NYC and Nellie Bly's incarceration in an asylum in the early 20th century .

[@Stradiwhovius963]

"Shut up, Becky!" is one of those phrases which has entered my regular vernacular.

[@jenniferfootman3257]

"Usurper" is ours

[@IgneusDei2]

Love your videos, especially these reactions! You blend humor, your own personal reactions, and quality info together in a very entertaining way!

[@DarkLordoftheMeme]

Bart doesn't have a conduct disorder - he just has Homer as a role model!

[@GoldenGoomba900]

There's a great episode of South Park called Tsst where after Cartman drives enough TV Nannies insane that they bring in a Dog Psychiatrist to try and tame him. It'd be interesting to see your reactions.

[@lilianagarcia7627]

I would really enjoy to see more of these Simpson videos. I was wondering if you could also review Encanto, a new Disney movie. The movie discusses dysfunctional family dynamics and things like depression and anxiety.

[@totokekedile]

Isn't the last part of the definition at 10:33 a little odd? Two people can hold identical fixed beliefs with 100% certainty despite all evidence to the contrary, but if only one of them claims the belief is part of their religion then only the other one will be said to be delusional?

[@tfordham13]

Agreed

[@aylababer6920]

I love your videos 😊 they're always so well done! I also love to see which Drag Queen is hanging out in the background 😁 go Ginger Minj 🐸

[@augustevarkalaite321]

Benzodiazepines have a very long half-life so they start to act several hours later if injected intramuscularly. That’s why for stopping seizures benzodiazepines are used on mucous membranes and not IM. That could be propofol, though I have only seen it used intravenously, so I don’t know if it would be safe and effective to use IM.

[@chimeragenesis361]

5:20 wow did not expect that Fireman Sam reference.

[@betteramulet50]

Has anybody told you to do reactions to Search Party? The show is a lot, but so fun and a big exploration of contemporary ennui and narcissism among millennials, dysfunctional relationships etc. This is my fist ever KZbin comment. As someone studying to be a psychologist, I love, love, love your work - clear, well thought, and most of all empathetic. Keep it up ☺️

[@dakotastein9499]

8:01 as well its a part of (i wanna say "subjectivity" but im not sure if thats the right word). where a person misinterpretes not necesrily due to any physical state...rather an emotional one....the idea was planted into her head by her sister that she was going to kill marge...so that conclusion overtakes things with other rational explinations.

[@abbyhuntley3171]

Ooh The Hand That Rocks The Cradle or Fatal Attraction would be some fun films to review!

[@ChildishDeVito]

Love your videos, so interesting. Would you do a video on psycho Pete returns from it's always sunny in philadelphia? I'm particularly interested in your thoughts on Dennis being diagnosed with BPD. Thanks!

[@EveryTimeV2]

Just because something turns out to be true, it doesn't mean that they are not delusional. Before the admission of guilt by Becky, Marge totally fit that diagnosis, and it wouldn't make any difference if she "turned out to be right".

Anyone else get confused and wondered what "YMOTANA" is before realising the video is mirrored?

[@ginaperkins1088]

There was a later episode where Homer was found to have a crayon stuck in his frontal lobe. It was removed and he was intelligent like Lisa. I can't recall why he had Moe put the crayon back and his I Q. dropped. That's probably why Homer has impulse problems and why he engages in high risk behaviors such as DUI's, numerous falls from roofs,canyons etc.😅

[@The5thPiece]

You should check out a Silent Voice, it's an anime on Netflix that talks about teenage depression, bullying and suicide. It's a great movie and would love to see you check it out.

[@ryanodriscoll]

I get the illusion thing. I one woke in the night to a man standing over me at the foot of my bed. I think its one of the only times in my life i have ever screamed out in fear. He didnt move and after a few moments i summoned the courage to turn on the light. It was a clothes airer. It was the weirdest thing as when i eventually calmed down enough to turn the lights back off, it still looked like an airer. And you're right, it wasnt a hallucination. I didnt see a man, i saw an inanimate object that in my groggy state in the dark my brain mislabelled as "man". I didnt put the airer there again though.

[@geneventide5314]

Great stuff!

[@alexandriaharrison9767]

There's an episode of the Simpsons where Homer's mom comes back into the picture. It's called Mother Simpson. It's in Season 7 and that one has always had an impact on me because of the ending. Homer keeps trying to get his mother's attention while she's trying to spend time with her grandchildren. I thought it might be an interesting episode to analyze because of Homer's attention seeking behaviors.

[@tree1568]

Is there evidence or do you think intracerebral hemorrhage and other brain injuries can cause issues such as impulsivity and emotion regulation issues?

[@aegisofhonor]

the Simpsons creators have come out and said they don't really research things much at all, they get a basic surface level understanding and just go with it and really neverminded the details. They simply don't care, and yes, they have done things and shown things that are extremely stereotypical and reinforce negative stereotypes and misconceptions (a very good example is glowing green goo everywhere in a Nuclear power plant which is insanely inaccurate and reinforces a negative perception on nuclear power in general, but it's a common trope and they went with it, and they seriously didn't care for many years). And that was just the reality of many tropes depicted on the Simpsons for many years up until very very recently; the show writers just strait up did not care if they get anything "right" or "acurate", as long as it was "funny" to a "majority of people" it was OK with them.

Why is religious belief specifically excluded from the definition of delusion?

[@hereisdamm]

Seems awfully convenient. If you believe in a demon watching your every move you are having a delusion, but if it's God then all is good?

[@0712Coockie]

I think religious and other spiritual beliefs are generally not seen as medical delusions, because religious beliefs are usually incorporated into someone's life and identity, and therefore do not usually cause dysfunction. One of the most important criteria in the DSM for almost any disorder is that it must cause a certain degree of dysfunction in a person's life in order to justify it labeling as pathological. If religous beliefs were classified as a delusion in the medical sense, that would mean pathologizing perhaps the majority of people in the world. This would not be ethical or practical medicine.

[@blindsightedkill]

I think it's the difference between harmful and helpful beliefs

[@KarmaKahn]

I see no reason why it should be excluded. It fits the criteria of delusion. The field of psychology is not above special pleading.
