Keywords mental health, psychiatry, obstetrics, quantum theory, love, consciousness, education, spirituality, prevention, emotional well-being Summary This episode of Locked Up Living explores how two doctors from very different specialties, a psychiatrist and an obstetrician/paediatrician, came together to change the way we understand and approach mental health. Shivam Dubey and Salel Gupta share their unique journey, discussing the urgent need for preventive mental health care and the ground breaking MindSync curriculum they've developed for schools. They highlight the lack of emotional education in traditional healthcare and school systems, and reveal how their program brings evidence-based life skills, resilience training, and social-emotional learning directly to children and adults in India, Dubai, and the US.   The discussion also takes a deep dive into the relationship between love, quantum theory, and mental well-being. Drawing from both Western science and Eastern philosophy, Dr Dubey and Dr Gupta examine how consciousness and compassion can reshape the way we think about health, learning, and adversity. If you're curious about holistic approaches to wellness, or how culture, spirituality, and modern medicine intersect in the quest for better mental health, this episode brings fresh insight and practical ideas for individuals, educators, and communities. Takeaways The collaboration between psychiatry and obstetrics can enhance preventive mental health. Love has a profound impact on mental health and healing. Quantum theory offers a new perspective on spirituality and consciousness. Mental health education is crucial for children and should be formalized in schools. Self-awareness and emotional skills are essential for personal development. Adversity can be a teacher if we reflect on our experiences. Compassion should be prioritized over competition in education. The Mind-Sync curriculum aims to integrate mental health education into schools. Mighty Champions of Mental Health empowers adults to support their communities.

Productivity is not about working longer hours, it is about training your brain to focus with intention. Constant distractions rewire attention and drain mental energy, making simple tasks feel harder than they should. When you learn how focus works, you can shape your environment, habits, and routines to support deep work. Small changes like reducing multitasking, setting clear priorities, and allowing mental recovery can unlock lasting productivity. By training your brain to stay present, you gain sharper thinking, better decision making, and consistent progress toward your goals without burnout or overwhelm.

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria in ADHD isn’t about rejection—it’s about uncertainty. If a “K” text or “Let’s talk later” sends your nervous system into overdrive, this video explains why.

We often view alcohol addiction and mental illness as two separate pathologies, assuming one can be managed while ignoring the other. However, clinical studies revealed that these conditions feed off each other in a relentless cycle, where the supposed "means of escape" (alcohol) becomes the primary fuel for the problem, and vice versa. In this short video, Dr Sanil Rege, a psychiatrist, explains the bidirectional relationship between alcohol dependence and psychiatric comorbidities. Core concepts discussed: • Alcohol use is clinically associated with depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar affective disorder. • There is a distinct cause-and-effect relationship where substance use degrades mental stability. • The presence of psychiatric comorbidities explicitly worsens alcohol dependence. • Conversely, alcohol dependence intensifies the severity of impulse dysregulation disorders. Get a clear understanding of the bidirectional cycle of alcohol dependence and mental health. Follow along as r Rege breaks down the neuroscience behind why psychiatric comorbidities drastically intensify when substance use such as alcohol is involved. #AlcoholAddiction #Psychiatry #AlcoholAndMentalHealth

From writing lists to taking a walk, it can be possible to gain clarity and perspective, even when faced with the most daunting tasks • Sign up here to get the whole series straight to your inbox “Perfection,” the French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry once wrote, “is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” The Little Prince author was talking about elegance in design, but it’s not a bad principle to apply to having a productive day. Rather than thinking about how many things you can cram in, perhaps it’s better to ponder how few you really need to do, and focus on doing them really well. Where do you start? With a list, obviously. To the chronically overstressed, taking the time to handwrite all the stuff you already know you need to do can feel like a waste of time, but it’s always worth the effort. “You can’t prioritise tasks if you feel overwhelmed,” says Graham Allcott, the author of How to Be a Productivity Ninja, “but you can be totally overloaded and still not feel overwhelmed. The key to this is getting all the various things you have to work on out of your head so you can start to make sense of them. Get a piece of paper, and write on it all the things you need to make progress on, all the stuff that feels unfinished, everything you care about that isn’t done. It will take you longer than you think, but the very act of getting it all out of your head will help you get clarity, perspective and a sense of control.” Continue reading...

In this episode, Dr. David Puder is joined by psychiatrist Dr. Eric Bender to explore the psychological depth of the Emmy Award-winning show, The Bear (FX). Through a psychodynamic lens, they examine Carmy’s character—his trauma, complex PTSD, obsessive-compulsive personality traits, and avoidant attachment style. They also break down the borderline dynamics in his family, especially his mother’s primitive defenses, identity diffusion, and projective identification. The discussion covers dissociation, personality styles, sibling roles, and emotional neglect, drawing connections to clinical work and real-life therapy. This episode gives both clinicians and fans of the show a nuanced understanding of how early attachment, trauma, and family dynamics shape adult behavior. Whether you're a therapist, student, or simply a fan of the show, you'll gain insight into how The Bear reflects complex inner worlds.

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.
