The Dr. Peter Breggin Hour

My guest Tom Garcia and I range over a variety of interesting topics from Aldlerian psychology to the treatment of addiction.  The theme: emotional distress arises from our failures to develop fulfilling human relationships.

So you think you can’t make a difference? My guest Orly Wahba is a young teacher who made a YouTube video seen by 5 million people. Learn how she’s spreading kindness and empowering people through her organization “Life Vest Inside.”

My guest Michael Cornwall PhD explores how to help people labeled schizophrenic with empathy and without resort to drugs. Michael has vast personal experience and profound understanding. A “must listen to” show for anyone concerned about madness, its nature, and its healing.

This show originally aired on March 7, 2011.
