  5. Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Addiction: The Vicious Cycle

    Show notes

    Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney

    Guest(s): Dr. Don Faucet

    Topic: Mental health disorders can change how we feel, think, and cope with life. And when symptoms become overwhelming, the answer for some is to turn to—alcohol and other drugs—hoping to feel better. But they don’t solve the underlying problem. Over time the symptoms worsen, disrupt brain chemistry and that exacerbates mental health issues and increases substance use. Today we’ll be talking to an expert on what we need to do to break that vicious cycle.

  11. Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Picky Eating or Eating Disorder?

    Show notes

    Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney

    Guest(s): Dr. Taylor Perry

    Topic: Being a picky eater as a toddler can almost be looked at as a rite of passage. Up to 50% of children between 2 and 4 years will demonstrate some pickiness during their toddler hood. But when does picky eating turn into something that might actually be a real illness or disorder? Today we have Dr. Taylor Perry to help us better understand whether or not the pattern is just a picky eater or someone who many have a health damaging disorder.

    Guest(s): Anson Walker

    Topic: We have all heard that team sport participation can offer a powerful balance of physical, psychological, and social benefits, and even watching team sports can enhance mental health and foster strong feelings of belonging.

Today we’ll be talking about finding balance and keeping the benefits of team sport participation whether you’re on the team or watching it.

  17. Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Burnout

    Show notes

    Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and MPB's Liz Gill in for Abram Nanny

    Topic: It happens to many of us at some point or another. Our lives get really busy with our daily responsibilities, our job, volunteer work, or taking care of someone. We feel the responsibility to keep going…then once the burden gets so heavy, we are just done and begin to shut down. That is burnout and it can jump in and undermine everything that we have been working for. Burnout can destroy a job, a relationship or an ultimate life plan. Today we’ll be talking about the signs of burnout, how to avoid it and what to do if you are getting close.

  20. Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | The Many Roles of Grandparents

    Show notes

    Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney

    Guest(s): Dr. Courtney Walker

    Topic: For many families, grandparents are an incredible source of support. They're picking children up from school, helping with homework, making dinner, spending the night when parents have to work—and sometimes, they're doing much more. Some grandparents are providing childcare several days a week. Others have their grandchildren living with them and have essentially stepped back into the role of parent. So today guest host Dr. Courtney Walker is talking about what happens when being a grandparent also means being a caregiver. We'll talk about why grandparents have become such an important part of the childcare system, the joys and challenges of that role, setting boundaries with adult children, differences in parenting styles, burnout—and perhaps most importantly, what children actually need from their grandparents
