MH23-35. Deborah L. Staunton and (DMDD)

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Deborah L. Staunton, on air from August 29th

Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) is a condition in which children or adolescents experience ongoing irritability, anger, and frequent, intense temper outbursts. The symptoms of DMDD go beyond a “bad mood.” DMDD symptoms are severe.

I am the daughter of a mentally ill alcoholic father and the mother of a mentally ill daughter. At that time it was a brand new diagnosis, very little was known about it and there were no resources for parents. Now that she is 18, her diagnoses have changed and while they are still challenging, I have insight and clarity that I didn’t have then.  Sharing my experience and what I learned from it can help parents who are on that difficult journey with their own kids. It can save them some heartache and provide validation and support. Mental illness still has a lot of stigma associated with it and removing that stigma is an important step in supporting those who suffer from it and those who love them.

23-35. As Summer Ends

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from August 29th

As the last warm rays of summer start to mellow, they cast long shadows, heralding the approach of autumn. It’s always a bit melancholic when summer draws to an end, but fall, with its russet hues and crisp air, brings its own sense of purpose. It reminds me of turning pages in a book, which is apt because I’m about to dive deep into two significant writing projects.

The first is deeply personal – My Life’s Reflections. Penning down a lifetime of experiences, choices, moments of joy and sorrow is no small feat. It requires introspection, vulnerability, and sheer honesty. I need to encapsulate all that I’ve felt, seen, and done. While it’s daunting, I also believe it’s going to be therapeutic, allowing me to see patterns, learnings, and maybe even offer others some insights from my journey.

Then there’s the ‘Our Forgotten Children’ anthology. This is not merely a project; it embodies a movement. It’s a collection of tales from individuals who have actively worked with children, shedding light on the pressing need to transform the surroundings we nurture our children in. Each chapter is a testament—a voice, a story, an appeal, even an anthem of hope. These narratives highlight the inherent flaws in our systems and emphasize actionable ways to reform them, ensuring the well-being of both parents and children. By strengthening their bonds and fortifying their spirits, we can hope for a brighter future. Having Krystal Hille Publishing on board for the editing instills a sense of calm within me. Their esteemed reputation and meticulous approach guarantee that every tale will be treated with utmost respect and refinement. Yet, the road ahead is long – there’s the challenge of raising funds, streamlining coordination, and overseeing production. And the clock is ticking, with only four weeks at my disposal, to get all the chapters over to Krystal and raise that money to produce it.

The urgency isn’t just about the change in season; it’s also personal. The UK is calling me back. Family ties, with near death experiences with aging siblings, the need to see them is strong, as it has been 4 years since. The pandemic has been a formidable barrier, keeping me oceans apart from loved ones. This upcoming trip is about reconnection, healing, and maybe even finding some semblance of direction for the future in hand. But before that, the tasks at hand loom large. The next four weeks are going to be intense, filled with late-night writing sessions, brainstorming, and possibly copious amounts of coffee. But there’s a intense excitement too. The kind you feel when you’re on the brink of something profound. As the leaves turn golden and begin to fall, I’m reminded of the impermanence of it all and the importance of making every moment count.

Let the next chapter begin.

Shows on Mushrooms

Robert Johnson, The Mushroom Guy.

So many myths about mushrooms in the culture—let’s try to get to the truth, and #factsaboutfungi are almost always more fascinating than fiction. Spores found on the teeth of a woman who died 18,000 years ago indicate fungi was part of our hunter-gatherer ancestors’ diet. Pre-Neolithic 7,000-year-old rock paintings found in the present-day Sahara Desert depict humans using psychedelic mushrooms. Two types of mushrooms were found on the 5,200-year-old corpse of “Otzi the Iceman,” one of the oldest human mummies ever found, strung on cords around his neck and carried in a pouch. Archaeologists surmise he was using them as anti-inflammatory, antibiotic and tinder, and that along with his weapons, mushrooms were a key tool in his survival kit.
