This video explores why the film Aftersun affects people so deeply by examining memory, grief, attachment, and the unconscious emotional world between a father and daughter. In this reflective analysis, psychiatrist Dr Sanil Rege explores Aftersun, the debut film by Charlotte Wells, and why it resonates so powerfully with audiences long after the credits roll. Rather than offering a traditional film review, this video unpacks Aftersun as a psychological and emotional experience — one rooted in fragmented memory, unspoken loss, and the quiet devastation of trying to understand someone only after they’re gone. Drawing on psychodynamic concepts such as retrospective mentalization, unformulated experience, and attachment rupture, Dr Rege explores how the film mirrors the way real memory works — not as a clear narrative, but as emotionally weighted fragments that return later in life. The analysis also examines the iconic use of Under Pressure as a moment of emotional rupture, where what was once unprocessed finally floods into awareness. This video is for: Clinicians interested in memory, attachment, and emotional development Viewers who felt deeply affected by Aftersun but couldn’t explain why Anyone reflecting on childhood, loss, or emotionally unavailable parents ⏱️ Chapter Breakdown 00:00 – Why Aftersun Hurts So Much Why this film stays with you long after it ends 02:10 – This Is Not a Review Aftersun as reflection, memory, and emotional reconstruction 03:50 – Memory Is Fragmented Why there are no neat story arcs — and why that matters 04:08 – Retrospective Mentalization Trying to understand someone only after they’re gone 06:22 – The Rave & “Under Pressure” The return of the repressed 07:49 – Attachment Rupture Presence mixed with absence 08:28 – Emotional Imprints What children carry into adulthood 9:02 – A Personal Reflection Fatherhood, meaning, and what we leave behind Dr Sanil Rege is a Consultant Psychiatrist (MBBS, MRCPsych, FRANZCP) and medical educator.

Sometimes the hardest part is not knowing why we have depression.

This video explains why prediction is the missing link in mental health recovery and how three specific questions can transform the way we use medication and therapy. In this episode, consultant psychiatrist Dr Sanil Rege (MBBS, MRCPsych, FRANZCP) breaks down why so many people feel “stuck” despite trying multiple antidepressants, therapies, and programs — and how a simple, neuroscience-based shift can restart progress. Instead of asking only “Do you feel better?”, Dr Rege shows why the brain needs clear predictions of what “better” actually looks like in day-to-day life before it can change. You’ll learn three core questions that anchor treatment, reduce “trial and error,” and turn vague goals into measurable movement. #mentalhealth #depression #anxiety #psychiatry #psychology #neuroscience #DrRege #therapy #antidepressants #recovery #emotionalhealth #braintraining #selfunderstanding #prediction 🧠 ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – The 3 questions that change everything 01:42 – Why so many treatments “don’t work”: the missing anchor 02:31 – The brain as a prediction machine (and why vague goals fail) 03:29 – Question 1: What does improvement look like? 04:14 – Question 2: What does feeling better look like? 05:00– Question 3: Do you know what you need in each emotion? 07:52 – Rethinking medication trials using clear predictions 10:43 – Your brain wasn’t built for happiness – it was built for movement 🔍 What this video covers •Why non-response is often misunderstood – it’s not always the wrong medication or therapist, but a missing treatment anchor •How the brain as a prediction machine uses expectations, feedback, and safety to drive change •The 3 key questions: 1.What does improvement look like? – concrete, functional predictions, not perfection 2.What does feeling better look like? – specific snapshots, not vague “better” 3.Do you know what you need when you feel each emotion? – linking sadness, anger, fear to needs and actions •Emotions as signals of unmet needs (comfort, fairness, safety, being heard) and how clearly naming needs changes behaviour and relationships •How repeated, predictable validation and safety are internalised in the brain, calming the amygdala and strengthening prefrontal regulation •A practical way to review antidepressants and other meds using defined targets (e.g. getting out of bed earlier, fewer morning ruminations) instead of yes/no “it worked” •Why routines, pacing, and structure are “nutrients of neuroadaptation,” not just lifestyle advice •The shift from “Am I happy?” to “Where am I moving?” – using cognition as the map and emotion as the engine for movement in recovery 🧠 For clinicians -A simple framework to structure reviews beyond symptom checklists -Make medication trials less random by tying them to clear functional goals -Phrases to explore needs, emotions, and predictability in-session -Use prediction + safety + neuroadaptation without overcomplicating consults 🤝 For patients, families, and carers -Turn “I want to feel better” into concrete, realistic targets -Everyday examples of what “better” looks like (sleep, work, connection) -Spot what you need when you feel sad, angry, anxious or afraid — and say it clearly -Use routines, pacing and consistent support to make treatment feel safer and more effective 👉 Resource: 3-hour masterclass at Academy.psychscene.com: https://www.academy.psychscene.com/courses/diagnostic-formulation-in-psychiatry/ Relevant Resources: PACES Model: https://youtu.be/o-B4pnQwc_s?si=KNysGTl9wG9SXIvK 👉Psychiatry Training: https://www.academy.psychscene.com 🎓RESOURCES BY PSYCH SCENE: 🌐The Academy by Psych Scene: PSYCHIATRY EDUCATION REDEFINED https://academy.psychscene.com/ Revolutionary psychiatry learning. 🌐Psych Scene Hub: PSYCHIATRY TEXTBOOK OF THE FUTURE https://psychscenehub.com/ The Hub is devoted to making you a better mental health professional.

With special guest: * RWR (Rob) McDonald … in conversation with Bill Kable This story can stand alone. But if you have read the first book in the series, The Nancys, you will be even keener to see what happens in Rob McDonald’s new book Nancy Business. For anyone who loves the British murder mysteries such as Frost, Inspector Linley, Taggart and all the others Nancy Business is a treat. But there are a few twists that you do not often find. The narrator and main character is a young girl in Otago a small town on the South Island of New Zealand whose father died about a year ago. Her name is Tippy Chan and with her uncle Pike and his boyfriend Devon they make a formidable team for solving a mysterious murder mystery. This is a modern family story and the relationships are explored with all the black comedy and snappy dialogue we might hope for. Given that the author is himself in a “rainbow family” he has special insights and we explore with Rob some of how this type of family compares with other families. Podcast (mp3)
