Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics including murder, mental health disorders, and legal proceedings related to violent crimes. Welcome, fellow curious minds, to another spine-tingling episode of Spooky Psychology. In Part 2 of discussing the insanity plea and the Sydney Powell case, we dive into some diagnoses that were brought up during her trial. What exactly is Schizophrenia? How is it different from Schizoaffective disorder? Tune in and we'll unpack each one, and why diagnoses shared in expert testimony can vary so much. We also debunk what psychosis is and what typical psychotic episodes look like.... and it's probably not what you expect or the way the media portrays it.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics including murder, mental health disorders, and legal proceedings related to violent crimes. Welcome, fellow curious minds, to another spine-tingling episode of Spooky Psychology. Today, we venture into a very recent case in true crime- the Sydney Powell case. But this isn't just an episode of discussing the horror that took place in Ohio. It's a dive into the complexities of the human mind and the intricacies of the insanity plea in our American justice system. We'll navigate the treacherous terrain of the insanity defense, unraveling why it's notoriously challenging to prove in a court of law. We'll also delve into the perplexing puzzle for legal professionals and mental health experts alike. Most importantly, beyond the sensational headlines lies a deeper exploration—considerations from a compassionate mental health perspective. Tune in for part 1 as we break down the logistics of the case and some fundemental pieces that are important to note when it comes to the "insanity plea" in America. We love to hear from you!

the Bears thing is bc its a German word. just like Frankenstien. In German, unlike English uses 2nd vowel's "name" when joined.

doesn't Borderline steam from Hysteria?
Christian Robards
I was diagnosed with DID by a " therapist". I didn't agree with it, so I got a second opinion. I have BPD. These two are really linked, and both are complicated. Its important to get more opinions, espcially if treatment feels off.
