The Fake Mental Health Crisis, Economically-Driven Medication, And Exploring Humanity

Send us a text

Today, I sit down with Dr. Fred Moss, a psychiatrist with over four decades of experience who now goes by The Undoctor — and for good reason. Dr. Moss breaks down what he believes is the dangerous trajectory of modern psychiatry: one that overdiagnoses, overmedicates, and under-communicates. Instead of helping people reconnect with themselves and others, the system often reduces them to a label, a pill, and a paycheck. We talk about his decision to start taking people off their medications — and what happened next will surprise you.

We explore the deeper meaning behind human connection, how communication can be the most powerful form of healing, and why so many people are misdiagnosed or self-diagnosed in today’s attention-starved, hyper-digital culture. Dr. Moss challenges the idea that discomfort always means disorder. He draws a hard line between healing and sedating — and explains how many psychiatric meds are the metaphorical equivalent of cutting off your arm to cure a mosquito bite.

We also dive into the rise of artificial intelligence, including AI therapists, sex bots, and AI-friendships. Dr. Moss warns that while AI may be able to mimic empathy, it lacks the one thing true healing requires: heart. We talk about why people are more desperate than ever for diagnoses, the social media glamorization of trauma, and the risk of losing our voice in a world that rewards silence and conformity. Whether you’ve been diagnosed, are questioning the system, or are a caregiver looking for better answers, this episode opens up a conversation that psychiatry desperately needs — one rooted in humanity, not just science.
