Joe Rogan - Why Are So Many People Depressed?

I mean how much of what would people experience when it comes to the word depression how much of it is their life going bad tragedy poor health bad job choices how much of it is some sort of a weird genetic thing how much I mean there's so many variables as to what causes depression but such a giant number yeah of people suffer from depression well I think it's I think it only if I'm being honest I think it's gonna get worse you know like you look at the way we live and the closer and closer you've spoken about that we're just talking about [ __ ] New York we're not meant to be that confined we're not meant to sit out like we're withheld from the [ __ ] Sun right now yeah so many of these things communicate with our bodies I'm working with a genetic specialist ryan frisson juror he was on Chris Ryan's show sunlight influences 500 on/off switches on our epigenetic level for the fur the good unless you [ __ ] overdo it right 500 500 plus on-off switches in our DNA are affected by sunlight positively right I mean there's that so they look at vitamin d3 takes that for example they're calling that a hormone now not a [ __ ] vitamin realize it's a messenger that's how much it influences in the body incredibly important so when you think about all these things like being barefoot being connected to the earth going in the [ __ ] ocean science will catch up in certain ways but we get fixated on the thing we get fixed innate fixated on our phones on whatever TV is going on we're closed off from other people we think you know communicating through Facebook is the same as being [ __ ] face-to-face it's not you know the more we head that direction and we're putting you know as you put it putting [ __ ] [ __ ] food in our body for mouths pleasure that influences the brain right eighty to ninety percent of all of our neurotransmitters are made by the bacteria in our gut so you think the [ __ ] meal is just gonna put on five pounds it's not it might put on five pounds but it's gonna [ __ ] your brain up for a while you make you a little bit more emotional [ __ ] with your your sharpness your memory recall all that's impacted sleeps impacted I wish Michael Walker talked a bit more about that I don't think it's in his wheelhouse I don't think it is he's he's just ago studies sleep and the the effects on it but [ __ ] was that in illuminating yeah i opening don't know outcast was so important to me it was [ __ ] fantastic I think his book is really good but as far as like dialing in sleep it's more of this is what happens when you don't sleep mm-hmm sleep the books sleep by Nick little Hales is probably my favorite because that gives you all it's a [ __ ] how-to guide on how to maximize sleep and when you were younger lack of sleep didn't affect you the way it affects you now right correct yeah everything he talks about like that shift that you have that happens in adolescence where you become a night owl mm-hmm no doubt and I probably still could stay out a little bit later until having a kid and then that's your your immediate reset yeah [ __ ] you're getting up when the Sun comes up yeah be prepared sir get ready yeah it's um there's so many different factors that lead to a healthy body but how much of a healthy body leads to a happy mind that's work it's like you can't blame some of these people that are suffering from like a disease some of these people that have like something wrong with the way their brain is producing these happy hormones yeah I don't think you can say it's just this one thing like well you just ate clean or if you just want keto or you just eat paleo then you wouldn't have depression I don't think that's it at all but certainly that's a factor it certainly could be a fact being in nature being in nature is a fact hmm and unpacking trauma gah Bramante says at the heart of all [ __ ] addiction is some form of trauma yeah I'm sure completely makes sense yeah his his theories on that are fascinating it's I never thought about that why that some form of trauma during your developmental stages led you to like seek out this weird crazy feeling and experience when you uh have you known many people that have had like serious addictions like math or oh yeah yeah without naming names people very close to me family members I've been addicted to meth I lost a cousin to pills I've been going to AAA not for me for a family member since I was three years old so I've seen that you know what have is now now is that trauma-based is like everything because pills don't pills just get kind of get everybody yeah pills can't get everybody there's no doubt about that that's yourself off there was some trauma there on in all those circumstances and I'm not saying you know pills can [ __ ] grab you there's no doubt but certainly with the meth and the alcohol which was other things you know no doubt there was trauma there you have known of quite a few people that got [ __ ] up on on pills after operations or injuries or stuff like that but I know quite a few of them that had kicked it you know that just realized it was happening when whoa doubt like shoppes talked about it quite a bit when he fought cro cop his nose was destroyed so they had to rebuild his nose and he started taking pain pills and he said after a while he's just taking him every day just cuz just wanted to take him and then his friends came over and cleaned out his medicine cabinet when I cut the [ __ ] it's four months later you're still taking these things all day long you can't do that anymore and he's like whoa he said he almost didn't even realize he was doing it just kind of caught ahold of him yeah [ __ ] becomes habit especially when it's that euphoric must be a maze
