Mental illnesses are tough, frightening, isolating, and sometimes even life-threatening. Whether you’ve experienced one yourself or supported someone who has, mental illnesses touch us all.

So let’s get educated, because there is help.

Each episode of PSYCHEDUP focuses on one mental illness: depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar and panic disorder.

We hear directly from people living with these illnesses, gaining an honest glimpse into their realities. We also cover symptoms, diagnosis and treatments, from medications to talk therapy or both.

Hosted by Dr. Diane McIntosh, psychiatrist, author, educator and passionate advocate for better mental health care, PSYCHEDUP is your guide to understanding mental illness and finding hope.

This podcast was created as a follow-up to Wicked Mind, which explored ways to inspire change in mental health care. PSYCHEDUP builds on that foundation by focusing on understanding mental illnesses, sharing patient stories, and exploring treatments and expert insights.Copyright 2023 All rights reserved.

  • This is Resilience
    Oct 10 2025

    Adversity is inevitable, how we respond to it can change everything.

    Between economic uncertainty, political instability, and personal challenges with health, finances, or relationships, life can be overwhelming. Yet there’s still so much good worth celebrating. How do we balance it all and hold on to hope and happiness? The answer is resilience.

    Broadcaster and author Gill Deacon joins Diane to share her journey through serious health challenges, showing how perspective, gratitude, and acceptance can create space for healing and hope. Later, psychologist Dr. Randy Mackoff returns to share practical tools for building resilience, from mindset shifts to self-talk strategies. In this episode of PSYCHEDUP, Dr. Diane McIntosh explores resilience—the science and practice of not just surviving hardship, but emerging stronger.

    What You’ll Discover:

    • What resilience really is and why it’s more than “toughing it out.
    • Gill Deacon’s journey through multiple potentially deadly health diagnoses and the strategies that helped her thrive.
    • The role of perspective — how small moments can mean the most.
    • Practical resilience-building tools — from managing expectations to reframing negative self-talk.
    • The truth about control — why accepting what we can’t change is just as important as taking charge of what we can.
