What a lovely conversation with Dr. Fred, and his passion for his new book Find Your True Voice he says it goes along with the technology and what we talked about today and it does.
It's about connecting with human beings.
Dr. Fred was the youngest of 3 sons; his brothers were over 10 years older. He was told he was a bundle of love and joy. Admittedly he says maybe not all the time, but that was his memory. He watched his brothers communicate with his parents. He said from a young age he would have to learn this communication.
Dr. Fred as a child was always smart, top of his grade, and funny and got into trouble. His seeking how to communicate was a frustration in school. Junior high was no better, nor was college.
He dropped out, then returned to computer science, and again he didn't want to punch cards. So he dropped out again. His mother said he needed a job. So he got one at a Child Worker in Michigan in January 1980. It was there he learned what communication was about.
Dr. Fred says this world is uncomfortable. Your level of maintaining yourself is working for you at times to have a smile. It gives you a purpose. But some people don't have that feeling. They don't want to get out of bed. He asks if there is a justification for being sad or scared or being nervous about how things are going to work out, or the voices in your head. Oh ya.
Just don't go to the hospital telling them that because those voices are fine but they will put you in the psychiatric ward, and you will be put on medication that will create the symptoms of being what they diagnosed you as as a schizophrenic.
All these people wanted was to make a difference. What is a human? They want to be heard, they want to be heard, they want to make a difference and they want to be part of this planet. We all want to be liked, but no one cares.
This is where Dr. Fred came up with Find Your True Voice and Welcome To Humanity.
Whatever you say, it's about Humanity. Hellish and beauty of being a part of humanity. He also undoctors people. What if there is nothing wrong with you?
Dr. Fred said that eating disorders were a more difficult part. But he makes a point. If you can accept that "this is humanity", and not put yourself down, it's easier to accept that you can, in this world of humanity, find a way to get over it, accepting it's part of your humanity at this time.
Dr. Fred did say some people do have medication that truly does help them. However, other people are given medication that only exacerbates the issue.
Very interesting conversation.
