Tim Ferriss speaks with Dr. Gabor Maté, a physician who specializes in neurology, psychiatry, and psychology. He’s well known for studying and treating addiction. I’ve wanted to invite Dr. Maté to this podcast for a while because he is not only an expert in the pathologies of addiction, but he’s experimented with - and used successfully - tools that are perhaps outside the realm of traditional psychiatry. He is also a co-founder, along with Vicky Dulai, of Compassion for Addiction, a group that advocates for a new way to understand and treat addiction.

Wonderful interview. Explains a lot of my life. I had an epiphanie!
@@judysmith1964 did ya have one where you knew how to spell epiphany? Or did you have multiple epiphanies? 🧠💥 experience eh? Right oh!

"We don't respond to the present moment. We respond to the past."
-Gabor Maté 🤯🥰
Brilliant!
95% of consciousness is believed to be unconscious.
So if i am behaving in a fearful avoident manner in my romantic relationships, i am not so much responding to my partner so much as reacting to my past.
The difficulty then, comes in trying to change the subconscious fearful avoident reactions. Difficult because only 5% of my behaviour is under conscious control.
Any suggestions?
@@globalvagabond5376 reactions have time afterward for adjustments. As you adjust your sails to reset your course, you will improve your re-reaction time until you've created a new reaction. Grab hold of what you can when you can. And make you're number one romantic relationship be between you and your breath.
React

“sensitivity magnifies the pain we have...it also leads to more creativity. often the most creative people are in the most pain.” - Dr. Gabor Mate
Profound quote - it makes so much sense !
My girlfriend acutually is the most creative person I know of. And the whole trauma subject is such an issue for us. I am so gratefull to have discovered Dr. Matés work, it gave me Insights that are of unimaginable value.
True so far anyway in Human History due to Massé insensitivity of Higher Self Awareness y Soul Y Spirit Maturity... As well as part of LIFE Experiences that The real overcomings of by individuals y Human Soul Groups lead to more Maturíng y Awakening of This Potential HumanKINdship y Earth Life lives Healthy InterdepenDance as a Whole
so true..i am talented, educated, obtained my BS in engineering..hoping i could get out of this chain...but didnt work..i lost everything, including the love of my life.
but how to fix it? i dont know...im happy i saw this video of Dr Gabor Mate'
12:50 for those looking where Gabor Maté says it.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Does anyone know any good source to get them? I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels, would love to give shrooms a try.
Yes, dr.sporesss
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. dr.sporesss
Dr.sporesss is the best, he's been my go to for anything psychedelics.
Psilocybin saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not in a couple years the be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
#❤Yes , dr.johnsonshroom
@Ryan Blacksmith Yes he's. dr.johnsonshroom
☆♡Can dr.johnsonshroom send to me in AZ?
@@JuanMadeline❤Sure. He delivers anywhere and also it's discreet. That's if you're worried about.
Can't trust anyone with psychedelics because it's still a schedual 1 drug. Governments are the natural enemy of freedom and peace. When the federal government can put me in a cage for trying to heal myself without the use of the currupt pharmaceutical and medical industrial complex, it's clear why our society is so sick.
3rd generation ADDICT, clean from Heroin and Meth, abuse in all forms I experienced, went to prison for violence and Drugs , this is what needs to be a major part of Pre entry into society for inmates, I had no clue WTF was making me tick, at 41 I'm scratching the surface of my issues, how do I confront myself with no awareness of the Root issues? MAN No wonder recidivism is near 80 percent within the first year of release!! Thank you, my look inside continues.
Wishing you all the best on your journey 🙏🏼 the resources are out there and inside of you at the same time. RE-COVER-Y :) like he said... 🍀 re discover yourself
Take care mate. Every day we observe ourselves and struggle with ourselves. It is so, so easy to get distracted.
@@Jukeboksi YES DAY TO DAY STRUGGLE
@Mike Martinez - I think you know what your problem is, you are just scared to confront it.
Cos when you open the box once....all of the pain comes in flooding your entire being. But once you have started "feeling" again, you can manage the pain too, it just takes time.
And if your parents were addicts, your problems are: child neglect, abandonment, emotional unavailability of the parents (hense your aggression - it's actually towards them), repressed anger, a massive emotional "hole" due to the lack of security and parental love.
And you need to change your environment + find a job if you want to change something. The same environment / "friends" will push you back to the same
@@MT-sw8rf Or, they could just listen to one of the best in the field share their expertise instead.
I guess I just want somewhere to share my story.
When I was 19 I took shrooms, and it was like I was turned inside out. As a child, I was very extroverted and loved being around people. And after the shrooms, I felt disconnected from everyone and everything around me. I just wanted to alone. I am learning to feel happiness from within myself, not running from myself. It's been a LONG and PAINFUL process but once it's healed, it's healed and beautiful
Its like that...people just stress me tf out.
one time i did shrooms (my first n only time but i had done acid before)
and i started to notice how badly my friends treated me and i saw how we interracted with each other more clearly, and it really opened my eyes.
@@kathleenmcclenahan5701 I can relate to that. It definitely was the beginning of the end for me too. But the ending of something less real, so I'm ok with it. Just took a lot of adjusting and I can't bring others with me like I tried to at first.
@@kiramatt6152I've been looking to get my hands on shrooms since growing isn't an option for me . Any one knows where I can source?
@@peterestrada8542Yes he's Dr.jeffshroom
@@PepperLinksWoo I'm not surprised you moment dr.jeffshroom name... They man is good and people always talk nice about him.
The part where he says about ayahuasca ..show me my pain , show me what love is really hits home for me.
I read his book In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts in rehab and it was exactly the kind narrative i needed to understand my own behaviors. It also helped me become more accepting of the idea of recovery in general. He was literally the first person i felt as though 'got it' and wasnt speaking down to addicts or mh patients etc. To a large degree i owe whatever success ive had to this guy.
In the Realm of the Huñgry Ghosts
👌🏻👌🏻
HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN REHAB WITH YOU. HE IS A WASHED UP JUNKIE WHO IS CLEARLY STONED DURING THIS INTERVIEW.
I would say he gave you the tools, but you did the work. Congrats!
Dr. Gabor Mate is a treasure to humanity ❤️🙏🌎
FFS. HE IS CLEARLY A WASHED UP, SELF CONFESSED DRUG ADDICT. YOU ARE ALL TAKING ADVICE FROM A DRUG ADDICT???
@@barbaraives5751 If drug addicts are so terrible, why do you type like one?
@@robynhope219about what?
Most excellent interview. The more Gabor I watch, the more I realize he is the real deal, and his egoless communication gets to the core in plain and intelligent language.
He is wise but absolutely not egoless, he seems to have a tendecy to grandiosity
Same !
He enlightened me to my fathers pain I did not know till he passed away... everyone of us are a child within ourselves and healing comes from learning from our parents and learning from the pain they went through and maybe evolve from there traumas
@@lotta6096 nobody is egoless
more people need to be egoless
I am stunned. Every time I listen to Gabor- he makes me see myself a little clearer. A true hero of mine. So glad to have seen this podcast.
I got my stuff's from online store they got Lsd, Mushroom, Xanax, extascy, chocolate bars and psychedelic products which they also deliver...?...?
They're on Instagram or Telegram as¿‽¿**
Phamrafi5~~~~~~~~
You can tell Gabor is a very unhappy person. Look at his eyes!
That compassion inquiry did it for me
Psychedelic are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough.it's fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety..it saved my life
Psilocybin containing mushrooms save my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit
Please does anyone know where I can get them? I put so much on my plate and it really affects my stress and anxiety level .I would love to try to shrooms.
@@leecharlotte5212 yes.... he's Myco.spore
I live in Michigan….suffering for awhile now but didnt realize how serious I may have it until recently - probably bc of @self medicating” with alcohol
@@williamspiper is he on insta
"Don't blame yourself: Why am I acting this way! Instead be curious and just ask yourself the same thing without the anger and hostility"

I think owning behavior is the first step to questioning and healing.
@@jennyadee913 Excellent point,Otherwise it's never ( my ) problem it's theirs!

“If you don’t integrate what you learned into your life AND build up a practice around it, it just becomes a memory”- Gabor Mate Phew 🔥🔥🔥
Can you please point where he says this ? The time.
A memory or a nightmare depending on whether you integrate healthy lessons in life into your daily practice or unhealthy ones, which so many traumatised people struggle with understanding the difference between what is healthy or unhealthy for them due to the cognitive dissonance and trauma bonding that has taken root in their psyche through years of being gaslit, verbally and physically abused and other toxic experiences from Narcissistic parent/parents and other significant childhood figures.
The difference between a true seeker and a feed-me.
Like, some people have one psychedelic experience in their life that is vague and unspectacular and they derive lifechanging insight from it. Someone else visits an ayahuasca circle every week and they can cruise on for decades without learning anything transformative. (Although an unlikely extreme, since then aya likes to hit you hard when you least expect it. I heard of cases where someone with a self-image of a spiritual guru took the brew and later told the shaman he realized what BS it all was. But at first he very much stuck to it. It took some time to process.)

"We don't respond to what happens, we respond to our perception of what happens." Mind shifted. Thank you, Gabor for reminding us !
This is a brilliant thing for people with borderline to remember.
@@TheMothernerd very true.
@@TheMothernerd Was thinking the same thing myself.
after watching 2 2020 presidential debates, I am thinking the same thing.
Aldous Huxley in "Doors of Perception"-1894-1963
Trauma: “we don’t respond to what happens, we respond to our perception of what happens”. “That’s what Trauma is: We don’t respond to the present moment, we respond to the past”.
Yep, going to do ayauska with shaman . It allows you to revisit traumatic moments and since you're tripping your face off you get to go back through these moments and reframe the way you think about them which heals the trauma so it no longer affects you
@@lisahandley7959 past moments? I dont know if I want to go through my myriad of traumatic moments! Scary.
Thank you so much for helping me to understand why it is so difficult to be me

One of the best interviews I have ever seen. I feel like I was healed up a little bit as well from the experience
We're all here together
@@kimfrank8981 Please can you tell me where? My daughter needs ibogaine mainly but sny that work on obiod addiction. I looked into one ibogaine center and they wont even be contacting me till next month. Im not sure my daughter will make it that long. I pray she does. 😪
@@angirgie729How is she doing? I hope well.
I'm a traumatized and highly sensitive person. Sometimes (quite often) it's unbearable to be like this. 😢 I feel like I'm a magnet for traumas. I keep recollecting new traumas. As if my childhood was not enough.
It IS unbearable. Just when I feel like I'm healing from one trama, something else happens! I can just hear someone saying, 'well you like playing the victim'. That makes me angry. If it's true, tell me what can I do about it, not just attack me.
Obviously, it realates to past trauma that needs to be healed, integrated..and stop making affirmatiomns..like Im a Magnet for traumas coz you ll just end up manifesting that.
"The message you get isn’t that good little kids don’t get angry: it’s that angry little kids don’t get loved.” 💗🙏🏻💗
A minor adjustment, if you will: *kids don't feel loved.
Just wanted to broaden the scope and give credit to parents who try to love their kids but accidently miss the mark.
Yeah like regular people don't shame kids for being frustrated actually care about WHY they are frustrated especially if they are not usually. Little kids get treated like adults too expected to sit still and behave and be quiet or else they have ADHD? They have more energy need exercise etc.
Dr. Gabor Mate awakens our mind to the reality of trauma and how our childhood shaped us. I have learned the importance in facing and being in touch with this trauma and suppressed anger. Journaling, and talking about them are keys to freedom. Learn how, WayofSpinoza.com

There is some truth in that probably.
Dr. Gabor Mate is such a genuine, unique and beautiful human being.
So are you😇
Weso Weso no you are
This says everything right here, because he didn’t used to be. He said so himself. So that says any of us can reconcile and realign with ourselves in this way.

I would like to thank Dr. Maté. You're doing amazing work ❤ Greetings from Germany and Poland
I was separated from my mother after 4 weeks ,and sent to a babies home run by the church of England. I was then adopted age 9 months .I have always felt outside of life and isolated , finding intimate relationships almost impossible ,as though I have such an absence of normal loving feelings or connection. I would love to know where to start healing process . There's so much excellent research now that highlight the consequences of the many ways trauma impacts us all . Thankyou Gabor Mate .

Fantastic interview. What a pleasure to hear humans talk about how to be more human. Dr. Mate is a sane voice in an insane world.
He's barking mad!!!!
sanity in him and insanity in others?....though there is only me
But he also says we create our world according to how we perceive it. I don't remember the exact point, but it's in the first half-hour, because that's as far as I've got just now.

*I consider Dr Gabor Maté a Genius in honesty and humanity. A man who suffered a lot. He's one of us.*
I'm the youngest of seven, when I was four years old my family separated. Three brothers were sent to biological father, oldest sister who was my care giver married and went away, second sister went to foster care, the cat went to the pound, my mother stopped working two full time jobs and was able to "care" for me, my stepfather appeared, and I was told to love him. One brother closest to me in age was my now only sibling, he became a narcissist and learned the ability to manipulate my emotions, zero empathy, all the classic abuse modes including rape. My mother was filled with grief and often questioned her decision, twiddled her hair with worry and often spoke of "did I do the right thing". Stepfather spoke little but provided for us. All my siblings and parents are dead now, I've experienced chronic pain for 40 years as well as an alcohol addiction that lasted until two years ago. I'm 63 and feel like I've survived but haven't lived. I'm on a spiritual path to find my way home.

Tim, you're a fantastic interviewer and i'm so glad i found this video. Gabor, no words to say but thank you truly for sharing your deep honest insights
52.00 mins - Thank God someone is finally saying this and not just blaming the addict for their weakness. But so many former addicts talk as if you have to follow 12 Steps and somehow change your thinking and behaviour, before you can even begin to tackle the underlying problems. I just don't see how anyone manages to achieve that, as the reason they start the addiction is still going to be there, and there seems to be no help with 'curing' those reasons. You are just told to pull yourself together and take responsibility for yourself. There's no kindness and self-worth boosting.
I'm so glad I discovered Dr. Maté at the age of 18.

there are lots of people who do care about your mental or emotional health...

To see Gabor so relaxed and getting into the interview making jokes and letting the conversation flow naturally, the pauses during questions and answers, the respect when listening to each other speak without interrupting is a beautiful, calming experience, while allowing me as a listener to absorb what is being said. Thank you for this!
My thoughts exactly!
I will be watching this again. So many life lessons for those who are tired of suffering
Yes!
can relate 100%. Awesome wisdom.
I’m tired of it
I totally agree. I need to watch this again. I thought it was amazing. I wish that the host would repeat certain things (titles of books) and key points because they touch on so many topics (and references to books and people and experts) and it's hard to catch it all. I should look at the show notes, I guess.
@@harlenevan just rewatch with a pen. You can pause and rewind. Xx
This single video led me to a journey with Gabor Mate's teachings that has transformed me and my life. Thank you, Tim! Your work does matter! Best of luck to you :)
A voice over of him speaking over a Facebook video led me to his work... I'm in shock at how accurately he described ME in "Scattered" .... I'm on my journey now.
Gabor is incredible. His talks have made a massive impact on me! And he is from quite close to where I live as well 💖 been listening to him for years now
this kind of conversation can indeed change lives
Thank you beyond words.
That's beautiful! What measures exactly did you take to change?
This Doctor's deep insightfulness, self-awareness and modesty and his unique way of dealing with his life-experiences makes his character totally enthralling. Thank you so much for sharing your life experience Gabor. I have learned so much from it.
This was brilliant. The sooner we acknowledge neurological diversity as neuroadaptive mechanisms, the better we will be able to journey with each person away from their suffering and more toward expressing their positive potential in the world. Dr. Mate’s journey gave me much insight into my own as a physician, albeit 30 years trailing. Thank you for helping me unlock a part of myself, Mr. Ferriss and Dr. Maté! As an OBGYN, I have focused much on women’s stress levels. But ultimately, addressing this problem requires a cultural shift and marked advancement in the consciousness of people individually and collectively.
❤
I realize this is an understatement, but Gabor Mate is truly a Wounded Healer. Thank you for this interview. So well done!
"When the student is ready, the teacher appears". Humble thanks for your personal vulnerability and insight which enhanced the interview in multiple ways... I have listened to several of your interviews without comment. Blessings for your healing light!😇💘 11/2/22
This has been a frustrating and painful truth for me...this human experience has been so difficult and it would be nice to be handed the knowledge at the outset to avoid the suffering damn it...but i realize that's not the point
Jesus is our eternal teacher 🙏🏾❤️
Holy crap! How did you two pack so much information in one episode?! 😮 this was very mind blowing yet a responsible conversation!
I hope so badly in my work in the future that I can convey to my patients what you've conveyed to so many of us walking wounded. ♡
This dude is so great!
Here are three amazingly profound quotes from just the space between 15:20-16:35:
“I have also studied myself very deeply. I have had to because my life just was not working.”
“I work with people to bring out the truth of their experience, so that they are no longer prisoners of their childhood, but that they can make a conscious choice about how to live in the present moment, not based on how they were programmed in childhood.”
“The intent is always to bring insight and liberation to people.”
🙏💕

FINALLY-somebody is out there talking about the long term effects of stress on more than just aging adults (where it’s acknowledged as a serious problem). My entire family has problems with depression and anxiety, and it all goes back to an emotionally, verbally, and sometimes physically abusive household that was the result of my father’s having been under an extraordinary amount of stress. Our parents loved us and one another, but they had some serious problems that took them decades to work out. And I was seriously, horribly, dangerously ill for two years in early childhood. I know that’s why some of my coping mechanisms have not been very healthy; they work in the short term, but they have bad consequences. It’s nice to hear someone lay all this out in such a cogent discussion. It’s helping me figure out what to do next to try and get back some emotional health, because I’ve been operating at probably one-quarter capacity for years and years now. Thanks for this-
Sadly our pharmaceutical industry makes us take medications instead of helping with therapy.
Your story looks like very much to mine . I'm always reminding me that what's happening - when I'm worried about something - has to do with something related to my childhood , so I can get calm .
Have you tried psylocibin microdosing ?
I have for two weeks already .
Up to now Ive experienced unusual ways on dealing some small things , doing it better .
I hope I will overcome many years of depression in next month .

I’m watching this 4years late but the content found me at the right time. Thank you Tim for putting all of this together
SAME
I've watched mostly every recent interview/podcast of Gabor and this is so far the most profound conversation. Thank you for holding the space and walking the talk!
Do you guys notice that the comment sections of intellectual videos such as this or philosophers etc has much less to no fighting or people insulting each other? This says a lot.
People looking to self improve and self actualise are much more well adjusted than people who think they are great just the way they are.
Have you noticed how many dislikes 👎🏻 there are though? So odd. Who could dislike this interview?
@@elainewoodcroft9070 People who can't change which probably mostly includes narcissists and psychopaths.
Something that makes it rather a gem.
There is something elitist in this comment and all the responses to it
Every time Dr Mate answers a question he gives a clear answer and never seems to struggle to verbalise what he is thinking which shows a strong and unshakeable understanding of his subject..To me he explains things that i have struggled to understand in such a clear way. Thankyou Doctor.
The moment I hear him tell us to not sexually assault and mutilate our male children I'm sure I will have that same experience as you. What I'm seeing is a man with all the information he needs yet an overwhelming cultural brainwashing that prevents him from exposing the most obvious, blatant and disgusting mutilation of the genitals of our male children.
I just see hypocrite.
@@nextlevelintactivism8195 Is he promoting sex change operation?
This was such a fantastic talk. Thank you💞. Living with Tourette’s syndrome I have had many struggles.
Since learning Vipassana, yoga and exploring my roots I have re-discovered the lost child who now no longer feels lonely and appreciates the meaning of being alone.
This new field of energy means less fear and more trust in the self.
Thankyou both to for your work, and effort.
Welcome, dear friend ❤
Great conversation, thank you! Fortunately, I'm a creative person who finds ways to heal from, mostly, short term suffering. With help from self-healing training in the 80's.
Also no drama with the world outside, just chewing on an issue, giving it time, observe myself and gradually I'm gaining insight.
Never depressed, happy with friends, sisters, with what I have, and do in my life, working on the land as volunteer. I'm 72, passionately retired from the obligation to work for an income.
I've met depressed people in my life, and one thing they need to deny, is suppression of their emotions.
It seems that because the depression is a coping mechanism, which is habitual,
they don't want to let go of that what is like the last straw to hold on to, see?
I believe that this is why depression, and alcholism, other addictions as well, is explained as genetically determined. Or a bad functioning of dopamine levels in the brain.
So that such a person feels relieved, it's not his/her fault. The depression is enough suffering: "No, please don't say it's my fault!"
And the medical industry has a loyal customer, as long as the cure is delayed or postponed. The loop closes.
I agree with Dr.Gabor Mate's perception of depression and addiction, his skill of people-whisperer is showing in this video.
OMG! Finally my life makes sense! Thank you so much for your insights into the drama of the gifted child and the sensitive child but especially for your explanation of how ADD develops as a coping mechanism if the infant who is sensitive to the stressed and abused mother. In that moment, you injected clarity into decades of confusion, self doubt and, yes, addiction. If only I could have heard those words 50 years ago. I like to think I would have never done time in prison and laid waste to my own young family in the process…
Nobody wakes up one day and says oh boy I'd like to do time in prison. I am sure that was not your goal. Your comment just moved me emotionally. I love Gabor. ❤️ I wish he could have reached all of us sooner. He makes so much sense.
So true
I think you slightly misunderstand, the scenario you described is only one example of how ADD may develop. There are other scenarios that could cause you to shut down your brain for survival purposes, other than your relationship to a specific kind of person.
Search for "EQI - invalidation" for a document related to the complex of good and bad parenting and the core psychology. One of those documents that every person had read it would already make a significant positive difference.
He most likely has trauma induced Disassociation functioning for all intents and purposes as adhd. I am in the same boat. My mother had untreated Paranoid Schizophrenia when I was a small child. You are correct adhd can be genetic and just happen, other reasons. My adoptive daughter let me know even though mine is trauma induced hers in genetic. One thing I would warn people about is be careful tying trauma responses to bad parenting. I've struggled with this a long time. My parents were both severely abused. I think in the big picture it's time to accept or forgive and move on.
Dr. Mate is calm experienced, connecting authority. It's such a relief just watching him actively listening to Ferriss. He practices his philosophy of compassionate inquiry. Such a relief to find this video. I could list on and on the points i found helpful. The distinction between traumatic vrs trauma inside disconnecting a person from her emotions and forming defensiveness in others is such a helpful concept rather than blame and guilt over addictions.
Thank you Tim for this video. It’s taken me a few weeks to get through it. Have 10 mins to go. Tears came at this point because I felt hope. Gabor has been life changing for me although I’m just starting out. Thank you for sharing some of your personal story Tim. I feel so much compassion & growth from you. I wish you so much love & healing on your own continued journey. Much love to you xx
amazing! I'm almost 64 years old, "The House at Pooh Corner" is my all time favourite book. My Dad read it to me and I read it to my kids, often with tears running down my checks out of joy, humour and loss. Until now, Ive never heard another say the same. Thank you Gabor Maté
Same here ... different books but emotional memories.
I'm 78, and still discovering the depths that resonate with me
Absolutely Beautiful!!! :-) Maaaaan, I have no words to express how AWESOME it actually feels to watch a NORMAL conversation between two sane human beings who calmly take the time to have a REAL conversation, and to approach the totality of a topic!
absolutely!
Agree!
Well put!!
Amen
Exactly Arcadian wings >< , it's almost like you have to blink to see if it's real in 2019
Great interview! Dr. Mate eloquently states what many of us have been learning for years. Our society doesn't tend to look at root causes for anything. It's always about the symptoms. Understanding cause is the only way to truly heal.
His explanation starting at 39:39 really hit home.
Grateful for folks like him doing their thing to help so many.
What a beautiful heart-opening experience. Gabor has more depth than all the worlds oceans and he’s all heart. It gives me hope and inspiration.
And seriously making the guy hold a microphone for 2 hours?!?
Oh no he had to hold a microphone. Is that really the comment you're going to post after such a great podcast? Focus on shit like that?
@@MasculineIdeal relax. you're not victim here

@@MasculineIdeal lucky you
@@chkker thanks rick
After listening to Tim's recent podcast where he disclosed his childhood trauma of being sexually abused between ages 2-4 it must have felt for him that Dr. Mate was speaking directly to his soul in relation to The Prisoner of Childhood. So powerful, shows that even the people you admire the most are fighting their own inner battles. Thank you Tim.
Yes fascinating you can sense Gabor sensing Tim hiding and deflecting and Tim knowing he’s deflecting and fearing going deeper.
I like to listen to half an hour of this a day so that when I go on walks I can ponder about this and connect the dots with my life
I think we are all loving Tim’s interview style here because he isn’t caffeinated or over excited and interrupting his guest like other podcasters
Dr Gabor is a gift to the world 💕
But Dear, all worlds are mental projections, .. Dr. Gabor is therefor a Blessing to Humanity.. (::)
AMEN
I can't get enough of hearing Gabor speak. I learn more every time about myself, about my family, friends and the world. Big thanks!
The last 10 or 15 minutes were most uplifting regarding healing ourselves. We all have that pain inside. Thanks Tim and Dr.Mate for your insights.
Dr Gabor, thank you for your modesty. You are a really mature man. I believe your children are grown ups who love you. You got such great communication skills. Also, you’re not oppressive. That’s what I like about you the best.

The mechanism is simple. The interposed foreskin decreases the friction between the introitus and the glans. The unretracted foreskin consists of a thin dermis that is folded on itself with very little friction between the layers. As the penis advances, the foreskin unrolls so that the portion that makes initial contact with the introitus is 6 cm. Up the shaft before any friction occurs between the device and the skin.

Circumcision removes the most important sensory component of the foreskin - thousands of coiled fine-touch receptors called Meissner's corpuscles. Also lost are branches of the dorsal nerve, and 10,000-20,000+ specialized erotogenic nerve endings of several types. Together these detect subtle changes in motion and temperature, as well as fine gradations in texture.
Meissner's Corpuscles are found in our lips and fingertips. They're there for us to detect the lightest of touches. So take your hands and rub them together. Feel that friction? This is the sensation that is not supposed to be felt during intercourse.
Size of the Foreskin - Its NOT just a 'flap' of skin!
"First, a dissection feasibility study was performed in eight male cadavers. Dissection proved feasible, and the mean surface area of the prepuce, when folded out, was 46.7 cm2. (7.2 square inches)"

Post-Circumcision Sexual Sensitivity Self-Test
www.fathermag.com/health/circ/sensitivity-test/
How Much of Your Sexual Sensitivity Has Been Cut Away?
A circumcised (anyone can use this - for us circumcised, this is our only way) man can assess how important his missing skin is by testing his remaining sexually sensitive tissue as follows:
In an aroused state, caress the skin downwards, starting from the end of the penis.
When your stroke crosses the scar line, note the stark difference in sensitivity. The amount of sensitive area you have remaining between the scar line and the glans is just a sample of what you had before your circumcision.
This sensitive region is normally much larger and folded inside the foreskin in the intact male, where it is moist and protected from constant stimulation. After circumcision, what remains of this region is exposed, dried out, and greatly desensitized.
Child circumcision was designed in an attempt to reduce the sexual appetite by reducing the amount of pleasure sexual stimulation can provide you.
I love how there are so many public Canadian educated psychological legends out there. Wish I found Gabor earlier in my life
Connor Sandberg !
Connor Sandberg : when the student is ready the teacher appears. Not my quote but, your comment, this came to mind..
It's so nice to hear a person use the word shame accurately. We live in an often toxic & ignorant culture, and words like narcissist, shame, and even more frequent "toxic" itself are often weaponized and used incorrectly. I mean it's pretty odd how everyone's ex is a narcissist considering how few NPD's actually exist. Toxic is likely the most frequently used, and used by people who want to get their way. All of these words are important, but often used to manipulate.
I mean of course Gabor uses them right, as they are a core part of his work.
We can thank the socials for taking any good thing and using it reckless AF.
Gabor has such a profoundly beautiful face (his experience & soul come shining through). Can't stop looking at it. And Tim Ferris is one of the great interviewers. I really appreciate this one.

If I hadn't been stuck in a shielding household for a year with 2 parents with Aspergers, in the middle of a pandemic, I would probably have never heard this. I can so, so relate to a lot of this...my environment, the numbing, I don't take drink or drugs, I was widowed in 2000, but never had emotional support from family, from age 12 I never wanted to go home...now at 52, I've run out of internal resources...thank you so much Tim and Gabor xxx
I feel this.. I grew up with a narcissictic sister (undiagnosed, of course) but so much screaming, manipulation, belittling amd everything revolved around her. My mother gave no emotional love and dad worked away a lot but never responded. Ive always been on my own but if i need to much im punished. Im gaslit by my mom too yet im the only rational person. Its very painful as ive tried to make a relationship as an adult and has recently backfired. Doing the same thing wont get different results.. Hugs

"The loss of self is the essence of trauma." dr. Gabor Maté

Yeah and so much gaslighting and cancel culture and oppression is not healing as they claim.

I love him so much. I wanted to add that Calvin & Hobbes is another story meant to be read and understood from both main characters. ♡
Dr Gabor Mate's wisdom, honesty, perceptiveness and story-telling skills make me want to find everything he ever did and read everything he ever wrote. Tim Ferriss makes a wonderful foil to him.
Yes! I know the feeling. Like his profound wisdom has given my brain an element I didn't realize was needed to be fully aware. Now I seek more.
Gabor Mate...I have been following his work for years. This man's heart and work has changed many lives and continues to do so. One of the few men who has a comprehensive view of what a human is beyond mere gender, race, addiction or any other label or 'condition'. Beautiful man.
So falling in love with this man and his work. 💚💚💚💚💚
this was 4 years ago! ... Such an extraordinary man! Dr. Maté you make so much sense ADHD runs in my family end continues to run in my sons. I see, I see so many eye openings with this wonderful interview. I have been following you for a long time. Thank you for all the work you have done and keep doing! We love you! Thank you Tim -- I follow you as well. So much work to do, one day at a time 💛

Guy helped me tremendously. Understanding the nature of my past experiences have helped me reduce almost all of the anxiety I used to have. Now comes the road to recovery & getting back on track.
It occurs to me that the wounded child is transformed in a positive sense to help heal others , however they can turn away from themselves in doing this, I should know as its taken me 45 years to look harder at myself and stop trying to rescue others. What a wonderful conversation .. open and full of learning.
Yes~not wanting others to feel the way I did. I'm 50 & realize I can't pour my energy into saving others. I've learned to let others work out their own issues. It's difficult to mind my own business. I want to help. It breaks my heart the way people treat each other. I'm very sensitive & working on controlling my emotions.
wow..yes...i see that in myself..
i want to help everyone..
but want im doing ..is hoping that people would see MY PAIN and return the favor..i thought God would help...
very rarely did anyone every try to help or look for the red flags..
You can't heal others while hurt. We can guide others once he walked the healing path

Thank you so much you opened some of my ADH problems because I suffered so much as a child and because my parents were also under a lot of stress and they suffered during the war so the anger they took it out on the children and this is how I grew up being hit everyday, my father was super intelligent and when I was in third grade I remember he was conking me in the head because I did not understand Matt I was an artist I love to draw and make designs and paintings flower arrangements and things like that but he could not understand why I did not understand mathematics thank you so much , köszönöm szépen Isten éltessen!❤❤❤❤
Dr Gabor, I was born in December 1946 and at the time my mother told me that I was born with meningitis if you can read this tell me why have this problems with sensitivity in my ears and the noise affects me so much I don't know if I have a little bit of autism please answer me if you can I beg you you are super smart gentleman !!!❤❤❤❤❤
When I first watched this interview when it came out 4 years ago, I was still in so much emotional pain and couldn't access therapy because I was broke. Now that I've done the work I am still extremely grateful for how Dr Gabor is so understanding of the impact of genetics, environment and the importance of connection with self. Thank you Tim ❤️
