12
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:02.039
<v Speaker 4>a you know, because I'm a marrigean family therapist. I

13
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 4>just had a session with some people, and sometimes you

14
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:07.040
<v Speaker 4>carry some energy from people, and it just makes me

15
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:09.799
<v Speaker 4>happy that I came over here and felt the energy

16
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:11.400
<v Speaker 4>shift in the right directions.

17
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>I get that. I actually do. I understand that.

<v Speaker 3>Tonight, I'm gonna let you know in advance we're gonna

19
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:22.439
<v Speaker 3>have a spirited discussion and we're also going to go

20
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:25.719
<v Speaker 3>straight to the hallway after this segment. So if you

21
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.280
<v Speaker 3>have questions and you're amongst the Mo migos and you

22
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 3>want to put it in the Motown chat, go ahead

23
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:35.959
<v Speaker 3>and we'll answer those questions, which are probably better suited

24
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:38.359
<v Speaker 3>for the hallway than live on air.

25
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:41.359
<v Speaker 2>You know what to do? Sam, Where are we going

26
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 2>to start tonight?

27
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:46.359
<v Speaker 4>Well, I was, you know, as usual, perusing through social media,

28
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:50.280
<v Speaker 4>and I saw a meme that came up where guys

29
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:54.719
<v Speaker 4>would say, if they could have any sound effect accompany

30
00:01:54.959 --> 00:01:58.000
<v Speaker 4>them as they're getting aroused, what would it be? And

31
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:00.280
<v Speaker 4>the one that the guy in the video had was

32
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:04.719
<v Speaker 4>the sound of No, it was the sound of when

33
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 4>Mario finishes a level in Mario Brothers. Stephan find that

34
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:14.960
<v Speaker 4>one for reference sake. Now personally, and I think I

35
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 4>had I had to talk to Stefan about this one.

36
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:20.800
<v Speaker 4>My personal one is having the sound of a lightsaber turning.

37
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:25.159
<v Speaker 2>On the Okay, I'm gonna be honest with you, I've

38
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 2>never thought of a sound effect. Thank you. Definitely precisely

39
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>wave that lightsaber around.

40
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:34.159
<v Speaker 1>Now.

41
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 4>Of course, anybody, if you have any other ideas for

42
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:38.560
<v Speaker 4>funny sound effects to go if then please hit us

43
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:42.240
<v Speaker 4>up on the chat and stuff like that. But uh, now, also,

44
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:44.039
<v Speaker 4>there's a sound effect for when you know you don't

45
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:45.159
<v Speaker 4>quite reach arousal.

46
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:47.639
<v Speaker 2>You know, those moments where you don't get quite to

47
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Speaker 2>the top.

48
00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, those little tiny moments where you feel a little

49
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:53.520
<v Speaker 4>insufficient and insecure there's a sound effect that should go

50
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 4>with that as well.

51
00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:01.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, but I've never associated sound with that particular

52
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 3>act or approach to the act.

53
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, my head tends to wander during sex.

54
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:09.280
<v Speaker 5>So you have.

55
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:15.000
<v Speaker 2>A soundtrack? Is there music playing in your head? Oh? Yeah, constantly.

56
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm not thinking about video games. Maybe I'm just

57
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:28.360
<v Speaker 3>wrapped a little bit differently. Maybe if there was a

58
00:03:28.479 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 3>theme playing in my head, Rocky would be a little

59
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:34.719
<v Speaker 3>bit on the nose, that would be I could see that. Yeah,

60
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:37.599
<v Speaker 3>it would be a movie soundtrack, No Easy Way Out

61
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:48.159
<v Speaker 3>Rocky four. Yeah, I see what you did. But with

62
00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:49.400
<v Speaker 3>that is the precursor.

63
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

64
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 4>Now for me, obviously, I'm getting older in the years

65
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 4>and uh, you know that sound effect of the price

66
00:03:57.719 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 4>is wrong sound effect tends to come up a little

67
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 4>more often now as I'm getting older, and you know,

68
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:05.599
<v Speaker 4>it can get embarrassing for guys as we get older

69
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 4>to go and talk to their doctors about you know,

70
00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:09.800
<v Speaker 4>the body parts not working the same way that they

71
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.080
<v Speaker 4>used to. And it's hard, you know, doctors are you know,

72
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:14.840
<v Speaker 4>especially if it's a male doctor. You don't want to

73
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.959
<v Speaker 4>necessarily admit something where you're not as virile as you were.

74
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.839
<v Speaker 4>In the past, and if it's a female doctor, forget

75
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.959
<v Speaker 4>about it. But for men, the ability to control and

76
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 4>maintain arousal during sex is something that has a huge

77
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 4>impact on mental health.

78
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:32.439
<v Speaker 3>It's a new age because not only can we actually

79
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.839
<v Speaker 3>talk about it on the radio, they are also products

80
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:41.560
<v Speaker 3>available on the general marketplace, which are advertised all times

81
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:42.040
<v Speaker 3>of the day.

82
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:44.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what would you say about that evolution?

83
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 3>Where is it society getting a little bit more mature

84
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:51.560
<v Speaker 3>or is it they've just found a way to monetize it.

85
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:56.360
<v Speaker 4>Well as sex has been commoditized without question, there's and

86
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:58.399
<v Speaker 4>you can make money off of it and everything like that.

87
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.199
<v Speaker 4>And we are up on I think or we just

88
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:06.360
<v Speaker 4>passed the twenty seventh year birthday of viagra. It's been

89
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 4>almost thirty years we had the viagra. Babies are almost

90
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:11.360
<v Speaker 4>hitting thirty years old. Now, okay, let's back up for

91
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 4>people who may not know. Viagra originally was a blood

92
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 4>pressure medicine. Yeah, that's what they were testing it for. Yeah,

93
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:22.439
<v Speaker 4>and then as a side effect they realize, wow, it

94
00:05:22.600 --> 00:05:26.759
<v Speaker 4>made things work and it brought life to people who

95
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:28.600
<v Speaker 4>had felt sexually dead.

96
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 3>And you would think about it if you're talking about

97
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:34.839
<v Speaker 3>blood pressure medicine. You're already dealing with a demographic probably

98
00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:37.199
<v Speaker 3>on the other side of forty yeah, probably.

99
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:41.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, now, And something that can affect that is obviously anxiety,

100
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 4>and you know, performance anxiety is a thing for a

101
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:46.519
<v Speaker 4>lot of guys, especially when we get older. If it's

102
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.040
<v Speaker 4>things aren't working, we tend to put more pressure on ourselves.

103
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:50.680
<v Speaker 4>So if you don't want to take the medication route,

104
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:53.600
<v Speaker 4>you got to start actually working on relaxation methods, deep

105
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:56.279
<v Speaker 4>breathing exercises, yoga, things like that, just so that you

106
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:58.920
<v Speaker 4>carry more of a sense of peace and calm with you,

107
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:02.720
<v Speaker 4>so that you won't anxiously block your arousal down the line.

108
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:08.120
<v Speaker 4>Not everybody is as good at mastering their anxiety as others,

109
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.680
<v Speaker 4>so for them, the medication is something that can absolutely help.

110
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.800
<v Speaker 4>There's viagra and sialis. Those are the two major players

111
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 4>in the game.

112
00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Let me ask you this, and you may not know,

113
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.040
<v Speaker 3>but why is it that there are only two major

114
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:24.079
<v Speaker 3>players in the game. Isn't there I thought there'd be

115
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.439
<v Speaker 3>more research and possibly more entrants into that industry by

116
00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:31.319
<v Speaker 3>now because it's so lucrative. Well, there's it's obviously very lucrative.

117
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:34.800
<v Speaker 3>But if a product is working. There's no point in

118
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:37.120
<v Speaker 3>trying to adjust it or make it sialis. It works

119
00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.879
<v Speaker 3>in its own way. It's effective up to thirty six

120
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:41.000
<v Speaker 3>hours more.

121
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:44.240
<v Speaker 4>It's more effective for people who are just like spontaneously

122
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:45.959
<v Speaker 4>going through their day and they you know, they're not

123
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:47.279
<v Speaker 4>planning on when they're gonna do it.

124
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:48.720
<v Speaker 2>They're just gonna do it at some point.

125
00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:51.000
<v Speaker 4>At some point, viagra is like we're ready to go,

126
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.279
<v Speaker 4>and thirty minutes from now, I'm we're gonna have some fun.

127
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.439
<v Speaker 4>Oh I didn't know the difference, Okay, And just that

128
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.800
<v Speaker 4>lasts up to six hours, so and if it does

129
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 4>last more than four hours, you should see your doctor. Absolutely,

130
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:10.160
<v Speaker 4>a condition called priatism is real, and the way you

131
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.639
<v Speaker 4>treat it, the way doctors treat it is not something

132
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:16.519
<v Speaker 4>you want to experience that it involves needles in the

133
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:21.279
<v Speaker 4>draining of blood from that, and it's something that I'm sure,

134
00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:25.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure some people have had viagra horror stories. I

135
00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:28.680
<v Speaker 4>for one, have had one viagra horror story, and it

136
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:32.399
<v Speaker 4>happened about twenty something years ago, back when it was

137
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:34.040
<v Speaker 4>like new on the market, and.

138
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:36.399
<v Speaker 2>I was like, I got to see what everybody's talking about.

139
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I didn't need it. I was like twenty two to

140
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:39.160
<v Speaker 2>twenty three years old.

141
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:43.279
<v Speaker 4>I was with somebody committed relationship and because of an

142
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:48.680
<v Speaker 4>episode of sex in the city, they tried like the girls,

143
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:51.439
<v Speaker 4>one of the girls like tried a viagra pill while

144
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:53.800
<v Speaker 4>with other guys to with like to see what the

145
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:56.600
<v Speaker 4>physical because they heard that there was some kind of

146
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 4>reaction for them too, But it was really more placebo.

147
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Now tried it.

148
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:02.319
<v Speaker 4>Me and my girlfriend at the time tried it, and

149
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:06.199
<v Speaker 4>my girlfriend got violently ill, throwing up and dizzy and

150
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 4>just couldn't quite manage.

151
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure it's an off label use.

152
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, it's not something that is prescribed for women's Actually,

153
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:16.160
<v Speaker 4>it's a placebo effect if anything. And the effect that

154
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.639
<v Speaker 4>I had on her was more of like the negative

155
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:22.519
<v Speaker 4>side effects that you see from it from overdosing on viagra,

156
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.240
<v Speaker 4>and so she didn't necessarily overdose.

157
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:27.079
<v Speaker 2>She just had a really bad reaction.

158
00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:31.000
<v Speaker 4>So she was stuck in bed, throwing up, having the spins,

159
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:31.879
<v Speaker 4>not feeling good.

160
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:36.879
<v Speaker 2>And I was in the other room alone with a

161
00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:40.840
<v Speaker 2>woodrow the size of a Winnebago. Well that had an attitude.

162
00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Let me ask you this, what are some of the

163
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:46.919
<v Speaker 3>other side effects that are less discussed or issues which

164
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 3>may come out of using that.

165
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:53.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, blurred vision, a bluish tint to your vision

166
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 4>is another one.

167
00:08:55.399 --> 00:08:58.039
<v Speaker 2>Also, heart issues if you're overdosing on it.

168
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:01.480
<v Speaker 4>It's why if you are going to explore those options,

169
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:05.440
<v Speaker 4>please do it with I know there's online resources available

170
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:08.240
<v Speaker 4>for people, and if you're physically fine and everything like that,

171
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.759
<v Speaker 4>I'm not gonna I'm not the medical doctor to tell

172
00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:13.200
<v Speaker 4>you what to do. But I also know for a

173
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.399
<v Speaker 4>fact that your medical doctor has a better idea of

174
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.679
<v Speaker 4>how your body works and what medications work with it

175
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:22.799
<v Speaker 4>and which ones don't. So if you're going to have

176
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.320
<v Speaker 4>this conversation, don't be afraid, don't have any shame about it.

177
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:27.799
<v Speaker 2>Go talk to your doctor about it.

178
00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 4>The benefits of actually having a good sex life, which

179
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:36.879
<v Speaker 4>these medications promote, are boundless. It decreases anxiety, decreases depression,

180
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:43.720
<v Speaker 4>creases exercise increases exercise boosting esteem, self esteem goes up,

181
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 4>improves sleep quality. There's so many different factors that go

182
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.200
<v Speaker 4>into having a healthy sex life that it's worth having

183
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:54.759
<v Speaker 4>these discussions, even if you're embarrassed to talk about it

184
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:55.360
<v Speaker 4>with your doctor.

185
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.080
<v Speaker 3>Okay, we're getting ready to go to the Hallway and

186
00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:59.000
<v Speaker 3>Constanine is this discussion. There are things I would like

187
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:00.639
<v Speaker 3>to say that I can't say on this microphone and

188
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:04.000
<v Speaker 3>can't say over the public airwaves. But when we come back,

189
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:07.480
<v Speaker 3>I want to address the shame and stigma because all

190
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:11.840
<v Speaker 3>these conversations we have, there's always next to it, adjacent

191
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.639
<v Speaker 3>to it. There's a feeling of shame and there is

192
00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:16.759
<v Speaker 3>some sort of stigma. And if we could get rid

193
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:19.159
<v Speaker 3>of either or both, I think people are better off.

194
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh for sure.

195
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from

196
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>KFI AM six forty.

197
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:31.759
<v Speaker 2>KFI Later with Mo Kelly.

198
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.159
<v Speaker 3>We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio app,

199
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:37.200
<v Speaker 3>and we just came back from the Hallway.

200
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:40.080
<v Speaker 2>We were having a very open conversation. We're having a

201
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:40.840
<v Speaker 2>free conversation.

202
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:44.840
<v Speaker 3>I was asking our guests, doctor sam Zia, the sex Doctor,

203
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:49.159
<v Speaker 3>about a variety of subjects and I can't detail them here,

204
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:51.720
<v Speaker 3>but a part of it, adjacent to it, was this

205
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.320
<v Speaker 3>idea of shame.

206
00:10:53.679 --> 00:10:56.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the idea that men have shamed.

207
00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:59.159
<v Speaker 3>As far as performance issues, the idea that men may

208
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:03.759
<v Speaker 3>have anxiety about how they're perceived by women, that we

209
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:04.440
<v Speaker 3>put it that way.

210
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.240
<v Speaker 2>How do we go about lessening that stigma or is

211
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:08.679
<v Speaker 2>it just something that's here to stay.

212
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.840
<v Speaker 4>We lessen the stigma by openly communicating about sex and sexuality.

213
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:18.080
<v Speaker 4>If we're hiding stuff, if we're a shame to even

214
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:20.399
<v Speaker 4>discuss it, then it's just going to sit in the

215
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.559
<v Speaker 4>dark and stew and fester until it becomes something toxic.

216
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:29.360
<v Speaker 4>It's important to be actually open and honest about our

217
00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:32.960
<v Speaker 4>needs and our desires with our partners and making sure

218
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.360
<v Speaker 4>that our needs are being met. If not, then we

219
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:38.320
<v Speaker 4>have more room for resentment being built within a relationship,

220
00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:41.720
<v Speaker 4>You have more room for frustration and tension starting to

221
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:44.200
<v Speaker 4>bite on people and then you start feel like you

222
00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:47.000
<v Speaker 4>start to seeing the dynamic between them shift to one

223
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.360
<v Speaker 4>where they feel like they don't quite understand each other.

224
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:53.559
<v Speaker 3>Is the shame for men specifically? There's a shame as

225
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:57.159
<v Speaker 3>far as women and how women may be perceived by

226
00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:59.840
<v Speaker 3>the world if they have what I call a body

227
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.120
<v Speaker 3>out that's higher than people are willing to accept. But

228
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:06.600
<v Speaker 3>men is different because it's I think it's self imposed,

229
00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:07.039
<v Speaker 3>is it not?

230
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:11.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, well, and men tend to be more braggadocious

231
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:15.440
<v Speaker 4>with each other about their sexual conquests and what their

232
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:18.519
<v Speaker 4>body count is and with women it seems like the

233
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:20.679
<v Speaker 4>more you have, the more shame gets thrown on.

234
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.080
<v Speaker 2>People from other people.

235
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:27.559
<v Speaker 4>But really a lot of times guys will also feel

236
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:31.440
<v Speaker 4>ashamed about either not having enough sexual experience or enough

237
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.399
<v Speaker 4>sexual partners and feel like like, especially if they're in

238
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:38.039
<v Speaker 4>a committed relationship, and they don't feel like they've fulfilled

239
00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:42.159
<v Speaker 4>enough of their of their their desires and experiences, and

240
00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.720
<v Speaker 4>they feel too a shame to communicate those desires and

241
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:48.240
<v Speaker 4>experiences with their partner. So at that point, that's where

242
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:50.799
<v Speaker 4>you start seeing resentment starting to build in a relationship

243
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:53.960
<v Speaker 4>because one person is like, I really want to open up,

244
00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:55.679
<v Speaker 4>and I am afraid of how you're going to react.

245
00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:59.480
<v Speaker 3>Speaking on that's where shame comes in, speaking of opening up.

246
00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:03.320
<v Speaker 3>And I wonder if this is factual or just anecdotal.

247
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:06.519
<v Speaker 3>In other words, my view of the world, there was

248
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:10.480
<v Speaker 3>always this belief that a woman starts to enjoy sex

249
00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:14.360
<v Speaker 3>more when she hits thirty or so first is their.

250
00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 4>Truth to that, I wouldn't say it doesn't necessarily get better.

251
00:13:17.559 --> 00:13:19.639
<v Speaker 4>I'd say the quality of sex may improve because their

252
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:24.080
<v Speaker 4>partners may have more experience, or that individual may be

253
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:25.519
<v Speaker 4>more comfortable in their skin.

254
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:25.919
<v Speaker 2>Section.

255
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:28.159
<v Speaker 3>That's what I was thinking, because a woman who is

256
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:31.759
<v Speaker 3>thirty or above probably is not in the shadow of

257
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.360
<v Speaker 3>her home.

258
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she's not necessarily as tied to.

259
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:40.200
<v Speaker 3>Beliefs that were imported to her or thrust upon her,

260
00:13:40.360 --> 00:13:42.480
<v Speaker 3>maybe not thrust rest in the wrong word, put upon

261
00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:46.559
<v Speaker 3>her growing up. And she's gorgeous making decisions as she wants.

262
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:49.039
<v Speaker 2>Is that part of it? Part of it? Yeah, it's

263
00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:50.519
<v Speaker 2>also being.

264
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:55.440
<v Speaker 4>Less concerned about the pleasure of the other person and

265
00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:58.879
<v Speaker 4>taking more ownership of your own pleasure and making it

266
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:01.159
<v Speaker 4>so that because and you hear a lot of times

267
00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:05.000
<v Speaker 4>like that person made me climax, You know that person,

268
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:06.480
<v Speaker 4>and it's like, no, they didn't.

269
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:07.840
<v Speaker 2>You did that yourself.

270
00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:09.799
<v Speaker 4>That's right, because it starts in to mind, your own mind,

271
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:11.639
<v Speaker 4>because that person could go with someone who may be

272
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 4>in orgasmic. They may not be able to reach orgasm

273
00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:17.759
<v Speaker 4>and they're doing the exact same things, but they're not

274
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:22.000
<v Speaker 4>able to tear that wall down, whereas with yes, thank you.

275
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:26.080
<v Speaker 4>But with people when they're you know, if they're doing

276
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.480
<v Speaker 4>it right and then they're attuned to each other's needs

277
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.080
<v Speaker 4>and they're doing the things that get each other off,

278
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:36.120
<v Speaker 4>then communication is already present. You guys are making sure

279
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:37.679
<v Speaker 4>that your guys' needs are being mad.

280
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.120
<v Speaker 3>I wonder though, if the concept of going back to

281
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:46.919
<v Speaker 3>Shane of that and sex has changed remarkably because of

282
00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:53.120
<v Speaker 3>the Internet, because people are able to see porn and

283
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:55.600
<v Speaker 3>how that reshapes the mind at a much earlier age

284
00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:57.360
<v Speaker 3>than when you were growing up or when I was

285
00:14:57.399 --> 00:14:59.960
<v Speaker 3>growing up. How does pornography fit into that equation.

286
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:03.840
<v Speaker 4>Porn, again, is the fantasy of sex, and you have

287
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:06.960
<v Speaker 4>to keep it in that context. You're not seeing the

288
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:10.639
<v Speaker 4>reality of sex in it, but seeing the sexual act

289
00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:12.840
<v Speaker 4>and seeing all of these different things has made it

290
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.960
<v Speaker 4>so that people have normalized sex a little bit more.

291
00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:21.039
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot well, well they've normalized the act, but

292
00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:24.639
<v Speaker 3>what they're seeing is abnormal, yeah, and unrealistic.

293
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:25.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

294
00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:29.799
<v Speaker 4>But at the same time it's bringing up discussion. It's okay, okay,

295
00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:33.120
<v Speaker 4>it's like, you know what that looks interesting? Have you

296
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:36.279
<v Speaker 4>ever wanted to try that before? Like, that's where the

297
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:39.919
<v Speaker 4>benefit of porn can be is that it helps create

298
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.960
<v Speaker 4>and it instigates conversation between couples about ideas that they

299
00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:46.240
<v Speaker 4>may have or want to try, and they can use

300
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:48.279
<v Speaker 4>porn as a way to introduce the concept.

301
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:52.639
<v Speaker 2>Maybe in a healthy adult relationship.

302
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but to those who are using it or experiencing

303
00:15:56.759 --> 00:15:59.759
<v Speaker 3>it as a part of their growth, and I don't

304
00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:02.679
<v Speaker 3>need just as not just physically. Yeah, I'm just saying

305
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:06.960
<v Speaker 3>the growth is as a fully formed adult, because if

306
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:09.799
<v Speaker 3>you look at porn in your early twenties, is probably

307
00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:12.639
<v Speaker 3>going to impact you differently than your early thirties.

308
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

309
00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:18.200
<v Speaker 4>Well, and there's the view that porn is exploitative, which

310
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:21.399
<v Speaker 4>a lot of times it is, but it's a lot

311
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:25.600
<v Speaker 4>of times people look at it as like the we

312
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:27.840
<v Speaker 4>can look at the performers, and that's another discussion about

313
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:30.840
<v Speaker 4>the exploitation of the performer, performers and stuff like that.

314
00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:33.799
<v Speaker 4>But when it comes to what people are actually seeing,

315
00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:38.679
<v Speaker 4>it's the way that porn has changed since the Internet

316
00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:41.200
<v Speaker 4>has come in. It was something that was like you know, oh,

317
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:44.799
<v Speaker 4>we're going to go and raid my uncle's playboy stash too.

318
00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Now it's like on every single phone, every single one.

319
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:50.720
<v Speaker 4>And it makes it so that you have to have open,

320
00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:54.320
<v Speaker 4>active conversations about this stuff, either with kids or with

321
00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:57.440
<v Speaker 4>your partner, because where that stuff wasn't as present, you

322
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.919
<v Speaker 4>weren't the conversation wasn't it wasn't accessible.

323
00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it wasn't there, Well, you didn't need to have

324
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:03.879
<v Speaker 2>the conversation.

325
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:08.319
<v Speaker 4>Now, it's something that porn, whether you like it or not,

326
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:11.559
<v Speaker 4>is going to have some kind of impact on the relationship.

327
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:14.759
<v Speaker 4>Whether you like and want to incorporate porn to the

328
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:17.480
<v Speaker 4>relationship that you have with somebody or by yourself, or

329
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:19.000
<v Speaker 4>if you have a lot of shame about it and

330
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 4>you don't want to have it be like, it could

331
00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:24.440
<v Speaker 4>be viewed as perhaps cheating within a relationship.

332
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:26.759
<v Speaker 2>Really yeah, oh yeah.

333
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.319
<v Speaker 4>I work with couples that are very much like they've

334
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:32.920
<v Speaker 4>had issues with infidelity in the past, and they view

335
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:35.880
<v Speaker 4>porn as part of the problem. So whenever they look

336
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:38.720
<v Speaker 4>at porn, that's as much that's as close to cheating

337
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:39.759
<v Speaker 4>as actually cheating.

338
00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:44.079
<v Speaker 3>I can understand intellectually where you can see that brings

339
00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:47.039
<v Speaker 3>an element into the relationship that not everyone is comfortable with. Yeah,

340
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:50.480
<v Speaker 3>But as far as infidelity, I'm not sure I understand

341
00:17:50.519 --> 00:17:50.799
<v Speaker 3>the leap.

342
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:54.640
<v Speaker 4>It's the it's not necessarily like the physical actor or

343
00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:58.880
<v Speaker 4>not actually being unfaithful, it's the feeling that gets left

344
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:00.920
<v Speaker 4>with the person who's on the other side of it,

345
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:05.359
<v Speaker 4>feeling inadequate, inadequate, feeling like what I'm not doing enough

346
00:18:06.200 --> 00:18:07.319
<v Speaker 4>Like what I, oh, that's.

347
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:09.119
<v Speaker 2>What you want type thing? Yeah, oh, oh, you're more

348
00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:11.200
<v Speaker 2>attracted to that. I'm not good enough for you.

349
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:13.480
<v Speaker 4>You want that's the kind of girl you want, And

350
00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:16.160
<v Speaker 4>it's like they're not people who have to understand a

351
00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:20.599
<v Speaker 4>lot most guys aren't necessarily looking at the girl as

352
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 4>far as how beautiful they are, because there's beautiful women

353
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:26.160
<v Speaker 4>all over the place. They're looking at the sexual act.

354
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.920
<v Speaker 4>They're looking at what's physically happening. Unless it's somebody who's like, Wow,

355
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:33.079
<v Speaker 4>that's the most beautiful woman in the world and I

356
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:35.119
<v Speaker 4>want to know her name and get to know more

357
00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:38.880
<v Speaker 4>about her. We're not looking at the names of the

358
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:41.359
<v Speaker 4>performers or who's doing it. We're looking at the actual

359
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.119
<v Speaker 4>sexual act. So a lot of times people will feel

360
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:49.119
<v Speaker 4>inadequate because they view the stuff that they're watching is like,

361
00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:51.839
<v Speaker 4>that's the person, the kind of person you want, not

362
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.400
<v Speaker 4>necessarily that's the kind of stuff you want to engage

363
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:57.000
<v Speaker 4>in the act, the behaviors, the sexual things that you

364
00:18:57.079 --> 00:18:57.440
<v Speaker 4>want to do.

365
00:18:57.720 --> 00:18:59.519
<v Speaker 2>Doctor Samza, how can people reach out to you?

366
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.440
<v Speaker 4>You can hit me up on Instagram. It's at sam

367
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.799
<v Speaker 4>z on air. Also my Psychology Today page.

368
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:10.559
<v Speaker 2>You can hit up. My number is one zero six

369
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:11.359
<v Speaker 2>three five two.

370
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:15.359
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from

371
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:17.319
<v Speaker 1>KFI AM six forty.

372
00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:30.000
<v Speaker 2>KFI.

373
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:32.519
<v Speaker 3>It's a Lady with mo Kelly Live on YouTube, Instagram,

374
00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:35.799
<v Speaker 3>Facebook and the iHeartRadio app. And are you a different

375
00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:39.480
<v Speaker 3>person when you're overstimulated? Do you react differently to people?

376
00:19:39.599 --> 00:19:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Do you respond differently? And I've never really thought about it.

377
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:47.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't think of myself as ever being overstimulated, But

378
00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:50.640
<v Speaker 3>then when I read more about it, it made sense

379
00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:54.079
<v Speaker 3>to me, and I think I can be self aware

380
00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:58.880
<v Speaker 3>and realize when I am overstimulated. And to be overstimulated

381
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:01.799
<v Speaker 3>means that our senses received a lot of information, and

382
00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:04.480
<v Speaker 3>working in this business, that's all it is, and now

383
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:08.720
<v Speaker 3>we're feeling overwhelmed as we're receiving this information. Yes, yes,

384
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:12.400
<v Speaker 3>And I think that's why oftentimes, when I'm driving in

385
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:16.359
<v Speaker 3>or driving home, I may listen to a driving home,

386
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:16.920
<v Speaker 3>I may listen to.

387
00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:18.960
<v Speaker 2>A little bit of Nori, but then I'll turn off

388
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:19.279
<v Speaker 2>the radio.

389
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:23.559
<v Speaker 3>If I'm driving in, I'm not listening to any type

390
00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:25.839
<v Speaker 3>of news or anything, or the radio is off because

391
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:31.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm conscious of trying to regulate my emotional balance. So

392
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:35.359
<v Speaker 3>I'm not over stimulated and the way it comes out

393
00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:36.680
<v Speaker 3>to me, and I'm going to go around the room

394
00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:38.880
<v Speaker 3>and get people's thoughts about this, and doctor Sam is

395
00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:43.559
<v Speaker 3>still sitting in with us. When I feel that I'm overstimulated,

396
00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:46.000
<v Speaker 3>and I think I'm aware of it, I am snippy

397
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:50.039
<v Speaker 3>because the amount of information I'm getting is usually from

398
00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:52.839
<v Speaker 3>social media. Social media is moving very quickly. Now I'm

399
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:55.720
<v Speaker 3>responding to five or ten different conversations. If you've ever

400
00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:59.079
<v Speaker 3>engaged me on social media like threads or something, I'm

401
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:01.960
<v Speaker 3>responding to a lot, lot of people, a lot sometimes

402
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:05.960
<v Speaker 3>by choice. Some people are engaging me, and then to

403
00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:11.559
<v Speaker 3>then start interacting with real people who are operating at

404
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:14.119
<v Speaker 3>a much slower pace and you're having just a one

405
00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:17.480
<v Speaker 3>to one conversation. I realize that I can be what

406
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:20.559
<v Speaker 3>they say short, I can be kind of snippy. I

407
00:21:20.640 --> 00:21:23.480
<v Speaker 3>can be kind of rude at times, and it's been

408
00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:25.119
<v Speaker 3>pointed out to me, and I try to be a

409
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:28.799
<v Speaker 3>little bit more self aware. But I think that's what

410
00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:33.240
<v Speaker 3>happens to me when I'm overstimulated. And so the title

411
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:36.039
<v Speaker 3>of this article is are you mean when you're over stimulated?

412
00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:40.240
<v Speaker 3>And I have to say maybe, yes, maybe, maybe because

413
00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:46.680
<v Speaker 3>there's a of my I believe I'm somewhere on the spectrum, somewhere.

414
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:49.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. We talked about this last year.

415
00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:52.599
<v Speaker 3>People are finding they are on the spectrum after the

416
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:57.839
<v Speaker 3>age of thirty because my oddities suggests that. And sometimes

417
00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:02.720
<v Speaker 3>I do have problems with interpersonal relationships and conversation. I

418
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.359
<v Speaker 3>don't perceive the world and receive the world as most

419
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:10.400
<v Speaker 3>people do. Like for example, I don't like talking to people.

420
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:12.480
<v Speaker 3>I like talking to the radio, but I don't like

421
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:15.519
<v Speaker 3>talking to people. There's a difference. Don't call me, text

422
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:17.400
<v Speaker 3>me now, That's what I'm saying. It has to do

423
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:20.079
<v Speaker 3>a speed. I want you to get to the point.

424
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:23.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm not into fake pleasant trees. I'm not interested in

425
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:25.480
<v Speaker 3>small talk when I'm not at work. I don't want

426
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:28.079
<v Speaker 3>to talk about my job. I'm very linear in that regard.

427
00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:29.319
<v Speaker 2>I agree.

428
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:32.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's just that's how I am. And so if

429
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.359
<v Speaker 3>I am overstimulated, going back to this article, then yes,

430
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:37.400
<v Speaker 3>I can be snippy, I can be short, and I

431
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:40.000
<v Speaker 3>try to stop talking to people because I will probably

432
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:43.799
<v Speaker 3>say the wrong thing or lash out. Uh, doctor Sam,

433
00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:47.559
<v Speaker 3>Are you one who is aware of being overstimulated?

434
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:52.359
<v Speaker 4>Oh? Absolutely? And I work primarily as a mental health professional.

435
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:55.400
<v Speaker 4>So overstimulation is something especially if you're on the spectrum.

436
00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:59.279
<v Speaker 4>It's uh, it's more pronounced when we get when we

437
00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:04.279
<v Speaker 4>get over stimulated, and the path of over stimulation is brutal,

438
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:07.640
<v Speaker 4>and it's like riding a wave that constantly gets bigger

439
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:11.559
<v Speaker 4>and bigger, like a tsunami, and it really it puts

440
00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:14.720
<v Speaker 4>a huge importance on being able to separate yourself, like

441
00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:16.559
<v Speaker 4>you were saying, getting in the car, turning off the

442
00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:19.599
<v Speaker 4>radio and you know, maybe listening to music or just

443
00:23:19.680 --> 00:23:24.200
<v Speaker 4>having silence. It puts a priority on being able to

444
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:28.160
<v Speaker 4>cope with the stress and anxiety and tension as you

445
00:23:28.319 --> 00:23:31.319
<v Speaker 4>go throughout the day so that that wave doesn't carry

446
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:33.480
<v Speaker 4>as much momentum throughout the day.

447
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:37.680
<v Speaker 3>Stephan, what about yourself? Do you find yourself over stimulated

448
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:40.559
<v Speaker 3>in a job like this? You know you're processing a

449
00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:43.079
<v Speaker 3>lot when you're working for these shows.

450
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:50.680
<v Speaker 6>I definitely compartmentalize because you know, I've worked so hard

451
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:53.920
<v Speaker 6>to get to this position, So I in general am

452
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:56.240
<v Speaker 6>a shy person. I don't like to talk to people,

453
00:23:56.359 --> 00:23:59.680
<v Speaker 6>and I think we've matched up on this. Like if

454
00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:01.839
<v Speaker 6>you have a party at your house, you expect the

455
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:04.119
<v Speaker 6>crowd that's fine because then you can kind of walk

456
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:05.960
<v Speaker 6>around to this and that. But if you come home

457
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.799
<v Speaker 6>and you don't expect ten to fifteen people in your house,

458
00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:12.640
<v Speaker 6>you've heard my stories exactly, like you want to go

459
00:24:12.759 --> 00:24:15.799
<v Speaker 6>into your room, but then you seem like the a

460
00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:19.279
<v Speaker 6>hole because you don't want to talk to Anyboddy right right, Yeah,

461
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:21.960
<v Speaker 6>I've told this story before, so very quickly.

462
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:24.920
<v Speaker 3>There are times when my wife will invite family over.

463
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:27.759
<v Speaker 3>It's usually her family because my family's super small. Both

464
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:30.960
<v Speaker 3>my parents, my father's passed on, but both of them

465
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:33.599
<v Speaker 3>were only children. It's just me and my oldest sister.

466
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:37.119
<v Speaker 3>My sister married someone who was an only child. They

467
00:24:37.160 --> 00:24:40.319
<v Speaker 3>had one child. I don't have aunts and uncles and cousins,

468
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:43.480
<v Speaker 3>so I'm used to having my space. And when I

469
00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:46.720
<v Speaker 3>come home and my wife is one of five and

470
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:50.039
<v Speaker 3>they all have forty five children, and they're you know,

471
00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:53.000
<v Speaker 3>they have children's children, and there are a lot of

472
00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:54.640
<v Speaker 3>people at my house a lot. So when I get

473
00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:56.480
<v Speaker 3>off work and I come home, and sometimes she'll surprise

474
00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:58.160
<v Speaker 3>me like, oh, cousin so and so is.

475
00:24:58.119 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 2>Here, It's like, oh what really?

476
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:02.200
<v Speaker 3>And then I'm getting off a tennish get home around

477
00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:05.599
<v Speaker 3>eleven ish, and then people say, hey, tell me about.

478
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:07.599
<v Speaker 2>Your day, what's going on? Tell me the three radio show?

479
00:25:08.039 --> 00:25:10.880
<v Speaker 2>How you being Foh, I want to go to bed.

480
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.359
<v Speaker 6>That's overstimulation And that's after a thirty minute drag. Because

481
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:18.559
<v Speaker 6>we both live in the same general area. Yeah, I

482
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:21.519
<v Speaker 6>don't want to be hospitable. I'm not not trying to entertain,

483
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:23.279
<v Speaker 6>so I'm gonnaware of myself in that regard.

484
00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:26.519
<v Speaker 3>Carnelia, let me ask you as far as are you

485
00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:28.200
<v Speaker 3>aware when you're overstimulated?

486
00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:29.720
<v Speaker 2>And if so, how does it manifest?

487
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.039
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I can feel when I get over stimulated.

488
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:36.720
<v Speaker 5>It's like my mind is going through so much, especially

489
00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:38.799
<v Speaker 5>if I don't have my days planned out. Then I'm

490
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 5>thinking about, Okay, I gotta do this, this, this, and

491
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:42.119
<v Speaker 5>then I'm going through the process Okay, well how am

492
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:43.720
<v Speaker 5>I going to get this and this done? And I

493
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:45.519
<v Speaker 5>find myself getting so tense.

494
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:46.680
<v Speaker 2>Physically thinking about other stuff.

495
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:48.759
<v Speaker 5>You gotta do yes, And I find myself getting so tense.

496
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:50.680
<v Speaker 5>And Daniel is so good because he's always asking me,

497
00:25:50.720 --> 00:25:51.200
<v Speaker 5>are you okay?

498
00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Are you good?

499
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:55.319
<v Speaker 5>And sometimes I can't even verbally express what I'm feeling

500
00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:57.440
<v Speaker 5>or how I'm feeling. I'm just like back up, give

501
00:25:57.480 --> 00:25:59.079
<v Speaker 5>me some space, let me breathe.

502
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:00.480
<v Speaker 1>There it is.

503
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:03.519
<v Speaker 4>That's the key is it's okay to tell the people

504
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:06.599
<v Speaker 4>around you, hey, I'm overstimulated. I need a second and

505
00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:09.880
<v Speaker 4>a good way to kind of stem the tide of

506
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:13.680
<v Speaker 4>that over stimulation is giving yourself maybe once an hour

507
00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:14.640
<v Speaker 4>or once every two hours.

508
00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:16.119
<v Speaker 2>This is a thing that we used to have. I

509
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:18.279
<v Speaker 2>know we gotta go to break, but it's an important point.

510
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:22.559
<v Speaker 4>There's something that was socially acceptable for us to engage

511
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:24.920
<v Speaker 4>in back in like the sixties, seventies, eighties, that we

512
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:26.920
<v Speaker 4>are not allowed to do. That made it so people

513
00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:29.960
<v Speaker 4>weren't as overstimulated back then, and they think that we

514
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:33.480
<v Speaker 4>can't handle our stuff like they used to nowadays. It's

515
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.400
<v Speaker 4>because every fifteen or every hour or every two hours,

516
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:38.599
<v Speaker 4>we would take ten to fifteen minutes for a smoke break.

517
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:42.880
<v Speaker 4>We would separate ourselves from the stress, whatever is getting

518
00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:45.960
<v Speaker 4>under our skin, and we would go outside. And if

519
00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:48.200
<v Speaker 4>you take a cigarette out of the out of the

520
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:51.119
<v Speaker 4>person's hands and you just look at what they're physically doing,

521
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:58.119
<v Speaker 4>they're usually looking away, they're taking deep breaths, they're actually

522
00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:01.319
<v Speaker 4>doing relaxation exercises. I'm not saying pick up a cigarette

523
00:27:01.319 --> 00:27:04.799
<v Speaker 4>and start up a bad habit. I'm saying, give yourself

524
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.200
<v Speaker 4>the same permission that we used to give ourselves thirty

525
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:08.359
<v Speaker 4>forty fifty years ago.

526
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Go outside. That's legitimately. Mind, take a breath.

527
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:14.359
<v Speaker 4>That's a good one. I didn't think about that. Yeah,

528
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 4>right there, that's stem for a talk. Do that once

529
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:20.279
<v Speaker 4>every two hours. Now we're starting to cut all of

530
00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:24.240
<v Speaker 4>that wave of overstimulation and cutting it up in chunks

531
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:27.720
<v Speaker 4>to make it so it's more easily digestible before.

532
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:29.400
<v Speaker 3>We go to newsbreak, Mark, is there anything you'd like

533
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:31.480
<v Speaker 3>to add? I know you're a very private person, but

534
00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:33.799
<v Speaker 3>I know that you have thoughts.

535
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:37.079
<v Speaker 7>Sam raised an excellent point. We need time to slow

536
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:39.599
<v Speaker 7>down and even to be bored. We have constant input

537
00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:42.839
<v Speaker 7>from media, social media, Internet. We have no time for

538
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:47.920
<v Speaker 7>reflection or silence. Your brain's a muscle and it needs

539
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:50.759
<v Speaker 7>constant work to maintain itself. And I don't think we're

540
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:53.400
<v Speaker 7>gonna like what it's doing to our brains all this

541
00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:57.319
<v Speaker 7>over stimulation. When we see enough studies have been done

542
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:00.640
<v Speaker 7>on I mean, think about this. It's almost impossib for

543
00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:03.279
<v Speaker 7>us to imagine what life was like for our grandparents

544
00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:06.480
<v Speaker 7>who grew up before TV, let alone Internet and everything

545
00:28:06.680 --> 00:28:07.359
<v Speaker 7>we have now.

546
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:10.079
<v Speaker 2>I dread what this is going to show about us.

547
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Nothing good.

548
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:13.039
<v Speaker 7>You have to really go out of your way to

549
00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:15.960
<v Speaker 7>take time to you know, take a walk or a

550
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:20.000
<v Speaker 7>smoke break like Sam mentioned, or just have some time

551
00:28:20.160 --> 00:28:24.119
<v Speaker 7>to reflect and think. We don't really, there's no we

552
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:27.000
<v Speaker 7>don't build time into our day on the whole, just

553
00:28:27.359 --> 00:28:29.960
<v Speaker 7>to think and just to be if you understand what

554
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:34.559
<v Speaker 7>I'm saying by just to exist without having to accomplish something.

555
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:37.799
<v Speaker 7>And that's especially true of Americans, which you find if

556
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:40.839
<v Speaker 7>you've traveled enough. That's why I say you gotta travel.

557
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:45.119
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
