Tbf Kenny is an immortal with awful luck who dies every other day, often in painful ways that he remembers. If anyone is justified in using drugs as an escape its him.
In the US, we had the DARE program for children, which increased drug use. It consisted of police coming to schools, describing drugs and what they do, and telling kids not to do them. 🙄 It essentially just made kids really curious because it made recreational drugs sound awesome. The war on drugs hasn't helped society but actively harmed it.
DARE mostly taught me that the one thing cool kids had in common was that they did drugs. As someone who wanted to be cool more than anything, all it did was make me really want to find some drugs.
The press conference at the end is modeled after Eliot Spitzer with his wife by his side after he got caught out soliciting prostitutes - suffice to say, she too was *absolutely* fed up.
1:30 as someone who knows people in the kink community, my advice is to look into pressure points in the area. There are vessels that can be restricted giving a similar effect, without risking asphyxiation, or damaging the neck.
This episode is, in addition to its drug story, a tribute/parody of the movie Heavy Metal... Which is great if you're a straight boy aged 12-15 and terrible in every other way.
I love when you break these episodes down. There is always so much I didn't see before. Season 15 has a two part character arch in which Stan March (the ten year old) is infected with overwhelming cynicism and can no longer see the good in the world and it leads him into alcoholism and despair. Again, as a ten year old. The episodes are titled something like "everything is crap" and "ass-bergers" so that will kind of tell you what you're in for. Thank you again for the great video!
Funny Heavy Metal parody aside I really appreciate the parody of anti drug media in this episode. I grew up during the height of those kinds of things so it is just really funny to me, hits home.
I was in a class where they had D.A.R.E. A cop came in with a clear case of different drugs. The only thing it did was show us what drugs were which drugs and what they did. I'm positive it did not achieve what they thought it would achieve.
I can imagine. My school had D.A.R.E. as well and they just made us sing a song about not doing drugs. Most kids changed the words to a version that supported drug use. It did not have the effect that teachers wanted.
That sounds awesome, our dare guy brought in special glasses that "let you see what it's like to be drunk" and then only half the class got to use them before they left. Best way to keep kids from wanting to experience something is letting half of the kids experience it and have fun while the other half is forced to watch and fill out a worksheet. You can guess which half I was, still not over it.
I don’t smoke weed that often, but a couple of months ago I just let my mind wander while I was listening to a song and I actually had a very therapeutic moment. Without going into detail, I was basically able to speak to my younger self, with all the emotions as if it was happening, and it was like a dam burst , and some old fears and terrors and baggage definitely haven’t been as bad since experiencing that. it Could very easily be confirmation bias or something similar, but it was powerful. There are perspectives You get, some real, some imagined that can definitely be useful or frightening.
My LSD trip was: Nothing happening Nothing happening Holy shit, the fkn WALL is melting! Why is everything dissolving?? Why is everyone trailing? What even IS that colour? Pink Floyd REALLY touches my soul. Holy crap, that cat looks demonic. Etc etc
Oh wow.... was I basically overdosing on seratonin then, when I started taking SSRIs?... Insomnia for days and really bad hand tremors, couldn't even hold a pen let alone write my name..I also remember being in a mental fog until I went back to the doctor the next week and reported the side effects (which the dr. didn't recognize as anything ) so I got switched to a different kind that seemed to be tolerated better.
It’s not exactly the same as choking, but in the ‘80s there was a trend of teenagers hyperventilating in order to pass out. I tried it a few times. Apparently I was entertaining to watch, and some people pressured me to keep doing it even when I got uncomfortable with it. A couple people had my back though, and shut down the pressuring.
Big backronym: The RECOVERY Covid study! Though that one's pretty decent. I used to work as a secretary for the ACMD who were very much involved the PSA and David Nutt, some of this video was too close to home lol
I'm now feeling a bit annoyed that I was akways such a "good boy", and never experimenting with the many, many psychedelics that have crossed my path. I've never even used cannabis. It annoys me that something thay might have helped my chronic depressive state was something that i actively kept away from. Probably the "worst" I've ever done is go to a cigar lounge.
Don't feel bad about it. Though they can give you very funny and interesting experiences, only in a controlled environment and under the guidance of a professional you can use these to dissonate from your harmful thought patterns. Heard very good things about ketamine or psylocibin in this regard, but outside from a therapeutic environment it's difficult to actively work on your thought process. Cannabis is in the most cases harmful for you, if you're prone to any psychological disorder
Some South Park episodes I think you should analyze: -Big Gay Al’s Boat Parade (S1 E4) -Put it Down (S21 E2) -Raisens (S7 E14) -You’re Getting Old (S15 E7)
If there were any way for cat wee to get me high, it would have happened by now... or at least reinforced a link between "clean the cat-box" and "good times".
In BDSM it was called Autoerotic Asphyxiation and was presented in pop culture in the play and movie The Ruling Class. The 1972 movie starred Peter O'Toole as a gentle psychotic who believes he is Jesus Christ who is actually the last heir of a prominent and very wealthy Aristocratic family - it opens with the previous head of family "accidentally" killing himself while performing Autoerotic Asphyxiation in tights and a frilly tutu and 19th century military uniform dress coat and 3 cornered hat...
cheesing reminds me of the time when i talked to my boyfriend on the phone to hop on a train to buy cheese in a neighboring country because i got news of huge sales, my poor downstairs grandma thought cheese is a drug there and he's my dealer. we bought cheddar and "ceramic" (white, moldy, spreads well on toast), brie and aged camambert. it was worth the trip
What is often overlooked in the assessment of this episode is that the fact that multiple separated individuals experience the same place suggests they are actually experiencing some sort of meta experience. That maybe the Major Boobage universe is some sort of other dimensional reality. Maybe they can reach the same plane with meditation or possibly reading magazines from France circa 1978...
I like how this episode is a tribute to one of my favorite movies, Heavy Metal. It does a great job of recreating the animation style and it also satirizes the ridiculous amount of boobage in the movie.
I'm deep into a caffeine addiction. When I dont have it I get vicious headaches, loss of appetite, extreme aggravation, intrusive thoughts related to getting more or having a supply of caffeine.
Novel Psychoactive Substances are one of my favorite topics in the world! You should do a video on them! Any way I could reach out to you? I’m not anything resembling an official “source” of information, but I’ve been neck deep in researching psychoactive substances for over a decade and specifically NPS for that past 4 or 5 years, and during my journey through the (US) mental healthcare system, it’s really shocking how totally out of the loop healthcare professionals are. They have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what I’m talking about when I mention them, and this video alone has demonstrated a deeper understanding of them than I’ve run into after many months experience with dozens of therapists/psychiatrists.
I love when you analyze South Park for us. It is a show that holds a very special place in my heart. Maybe because I have seen every episode numerous times but I often find myself taking a psychological look at certain episodes and characters.
Its also worth mentioning that another reason psychedelics might not be used in conjunction with SSRIs is because if youre prescribed SSRIs, most psychedelics will not work. You get all the risk and 0 of the "benefit".
I was addicted to applying pressure to my neck for 2 and half years. I lost consciousness several times which on two occasions resulted in hitting my head on a very hard surface. It also caused a certain amount of brain damage. And I also developed spasms later on. I was doing this every single day , every approximately 3-5 seconds I had alone. I forgot how to tell time(unless it was _o'clock or half past _) I couldn't recognise sarcasm , I could feel very little emotions (mainly frustration , annoyance and boredom and in the early days of I was asked what 2+2 was I probably would have said 5 So please if you're thinking of doing this, please reconsider
I know you already did a video on Addiction, but you should do a video on Bloody Mary. It talks about alcoholism with Randy but the AA meeting he goes to makes him think that he can't beat it on his own, that he's "powerless" and only God and a miracle can cure him. I figured that you could provide some insight on it, that you can fight alcoholism and such without God.
1:20 Don't ask me why I know all of this, but I believe what you're referring to is a "Rigor Erectus" or "Death Erection". A phenomenon observed since antiquity most commonly in those killed by hanging. In short-drop hanging, the blocked carotids cause an increase in pressure on the cerebellum. And in long-drop, your Cervical Spine is severed rapidly. Cerebellar pressure and Acute Cervical Spinal Transection are the most commonly observed causes of post-mortem priapism. Naturally, no one knew either of those things in true detail until the modern era, which led to the less elegant, albeit still technically correct, association of choking with sexual pleasure.
In regards to acronyms, you reminded me of a scene from Red Dwarf. “I think the real issue is what are we going to call ourselves. I vote for “the committee for the liberation and integration of terrifying organisms and their rehabilitation into society”, one drawback with that however is the abbreviation is CLITORIS”
6:08 Back in college, I got a reputation because of my love of broccoli, because everyone thought I was talking about Mary Jane. I still don't see the connection to be honest.
I've always thought that hallucinogenics have similar psychological benefits as EMDR, allowing people to reprocess things from a different perspective. Considering that our bodies have endogenous hallucinogens (and their receptors) it seems logical that this is a pro-survival mechanism. (And yes, I am a fan of evolutionary neuropsychology)
I don't know if it's because of his rough home life, or because he's poor, or just brave. But Kenny seems very eager to get high. Like as soon as someone in class mentioned getting high from choking, he just started doing it, sourounded by people. No shame or care, just immediate experimentation.
Not a medical professional, but I think I can answer this one (someone corrects me if I'm wrong) Under your tongue, there's veins and the mucous membrane over them is not impermeable, molecules can get into your bloodstream this way instead of undergoing pretty much the same process but in the digestive system.
So they figured out the euphoric state from being hanged because men had erections after being hanged. At least that’s what I remember reading. Also thanks for the list of animals to eat haha
Matt Stone and Trey Parker made a hilarious sitcom parody in 2001 called “That’s My Bush!” It was set mostly at the White House and about silly immature George and his wife Laura. There was an episode where they were having a ceremony at the White House celebrating the arrest of the One Hundred Millionth War On Drugs Offender! 😂 Absolutely BRILLIANT satire!!! Perfect demonstration of how stupid and pointless the “War on Drugs” is lol
I'm not a big South Park guy. Some of them are alright, but generally speaking it doesn't do it for me. I do like 'boobage' a lot though; however, I prefer 'boobage' to be proportional to the woman they are attached to. I'd like to see your take on "Se7en." I saw some bug spray and it reminded me of it. This girl kept telling me, "you'll never guess what happens at the end," but as soon as I saw that box, I knew exactly what had happened. "It's what I would have done," was not the right thing to say on a first maybe a date. I meant if I were a serial killer, not like I was going to do it for a weekend project, and she seemed like she was into that sort of thing anyway. I neither saw nor heard from her again though. I'm going to devote my life to finding and breeding tree frogs now. Thanks for the video Doctor Carthy.
Hey, I was just wondering if you’ve ever seen the movie Swallow, released in 2020 about a character called Hunter. Specifically the interactions between herself, her husband and her therapist and how the situation was handled. I think it would be interesting for your channel. Keep up the reactions!😊
I had a pretty bad sexual addiction. But I realized I didn't have time for other interests. I went cold turkey in 1987 for 7 years and am happy to say resisted the temptation when it presented itself. I felt that I finally had it under control, and in 1994, I decided to be sexually active again, but it slowly grew back into an addiction again until 2019. The only thing stopping me this time was the Covid epidemic. I am not sure what will happen now in 2023. I am 68 now, so maybe my age will be the thing to put it under control. Sexual addiction is real. Especially when sexual encounters are so easily available. Although I had a friend willing to pay 10s of thousands for the experience of multi-girl sex encounters.
there's been some studies on mdma (ecstacy/molly compound) assisted therapy for long term trauma cases with some promising results. unfortunately , it's still gonna be many years till it'll be legal, if at all. recreational drugs can be helpful for dealing with mental illnesses ... selfmedication on the other hand - not so much. And so i sit and wait.
This has nothing to do with why I have 12 cats!? Honest! :D Episode makes me think of a song that was at number one in the UK charts in the early 90's, during drug awareness week, by a group called The Shamen, the track called "Ebeneezeer Goode". The lyrics were/are genius and the irony of the timing was beautiful, you couldn't have planned it better! I seriously recommend everyone top give it a listen!! :D
I know you usually stick to TV and movies but could you do a reaction to some old blog articles by The Last Psychiatrist? Maybe "The Maintenance Of Certification Exam As Fetish" or "Couple Reveals Child's Gender Five Years Too Late"?
Do you know that this episode is a ripOff, Take on, Utter Homage to the 1981 movie "Heavy Metal"? Doctor, please look it up and give us your insights... PLEASE And again, LUV from Canada, mate. And Happy Christmas 🎄🌲
Very good videos and analysis, but I still can't believe there is no analysis of Neon Genesis Evangelion?? , the most psychologically dense animation of all.👌
Tbf Kenny is an immortal with awful luck who dies every other day, often in painful ways that he remembers. If anyone is justified in using drugs as an escape its him.
I agree 100%. If ever there was a reason to get high, constant death and rebirth would be it.
@@bonefetcherbrimley7740 for him AND his mom. I know she's not a great person, but geez each time Kenny's died she's given birth. I kinda feel for her
@@spadinnerxylaphone2622 I agree!
Truer words! For Kenny... and both his parents!
"I'm tired guys, I'm going to bed." *shoots himself*

I learned more about illegal/legal drugs affects at those stupid seminal’s than I would’ve else where.
The war on drugs did exactly what it was meant to do. Put large numbers of people in certain economic groups in jail…
DARE mostly taught me that the one thing cool kids had in common was that they did drugs. As someone who wanted to be cool more than anything, all it did was make me really want to find some drugs.
It even had merch, many disreputable youths wore DARE shirts with pride
@@RockyDaTherapist You're 100% right.
Cheesing is 100% something Charlie Kelly would do, both in regards to huffing cat pee and enjoying copious amounts of cheese 😂
Call the episode the gang gets a cat 👀
The press conference at the end is modeled after Eliot Spitzer with his wife by his side after he got caught out soliciting prostitutes - suffice to say, she too was *absolutely* fed up.
For context, the stuff Kenny sees while stoned is all a parody/nod to Heavy Metal
I remember this episode confusing a lot of people when it came out.
The MOVIE especially .... where the song played here was featured
yep, Heavy Metal (1981) more preciselly. i've watched because of that episode, it's a awesome movie.
1:30 as someone who knows people in the kink community, my advice is to look into pressure points in the area. There are vessels that can be restricted giving a similar effect, without risking asphyxiation, or damaging the neck.

This is the best possible explanation of Heavy Metal.
It also has a solid rock soundtrack with bands like Cheap Trick and Devo
Um... not just you straight boys, man.
@@wmdkitty I was being hyperbolic, if that wasn't obvious. The movie clearly had a target audience, however.
@@LordVolkovWas metal not really yet established as a genre at that time?

I agree but the first part is actually called "You're Getting Old"
"I am a legit professional." Is the best line.
The news explanation of hip drug lingo to parents is such an accurate parody lol
I’ve never seen such informative and entertaining South Park analysis!
Your videos are awesome!

Also in their illustrations of drugs they had like a razor blade with the weed to make it look scarier.
That comment about cartman and anne frank got me 😂 i loved this video!
The trippy parts of this episode are a spoof of a movie from the 80s called Heavy Metal, which I highly recommend.
I don’t smoke weed that often, but a couple of months ago I just let my mind wander while I was listening to a song and I actually had a very therapeutic moment.

My LSD trip was:

Holy shit, the fkn WALL is melting! Why is everything dissolving??
Why is everyone trailing?

Holy crap, that cat looks demonic.

Remember kids, psychedelic mushrooms grows in abundance on every permanently inhabited continent, they can get you really high so don't do them m'kay

I used to work as a secretary for the ACMD who were very much involved the PSA and David Nutt, some of this video was too close to home lol
14:35 - Sheila's face - priceless!!!!!
I have to say I'm way more comfortable watching this knowing the Dr. is gay and isn't getting gratified by saying "boobage".
I'm now feeling a bit annoyed that I was akways such a "good boy", and never experimenting with the many, many psychedelics that have crossed my path. I've never even used cannabis. It annoys me that something thay might have helped my chronic depressive state was something that i actively kept away from. Probably the "worst" I've ever done is go to a cigar lounge.

Cannabis is in the most cases harmful for you, if you're prone to any psychological disorder
I had a series of ketamine infusions earlier this year to treat my PTSD. It was quite an experience and helped so much with my symptoms.
Some South Park episodes I think you should analyze:
-Big Gay Al’s Boat Parade (S1 E4)
-Put it Down (S21 E2)
-Raisens (S7 E14)
-You’re Getting Old (S15 E7)
Tripping actually feels like a lucid dream. Like the dream world is superimposed over the real one.
This was hilarious! 😂 It's impressive how you managed to make it about real mental health issues
He didn't "make it" about anything, he just discussed the topics that this episode is about.
5:14 It comes to mind "Proton-Enhanced Nuclear Induction Spectroscopy" or PENIS, a variant of NMR now called cross-polarization
2:00 lol I never noticed Kenny trying to choke myself
If there were any way for cat wee to get me high, it would have happened by now... or at least reinforced a link between "clean the cat-box" and "good times".

on the topic of drugs, how about a reaction of "Medicinal Fried Chicken".
South Park season 14, episode 3
2:15 He makes fun of Mr. Mackey for giving kids ideas, then immediately proceeds to give us even more ideas xD
What is often overlooked in the assessment of this episode is that the fact that multiple separated individuals experience the same place suggests they are actually experiencing some sort of meta experience. That maybe the Major Boobage universe is some sort of other dimensional reality. Maybe they can reach the same plane with meditation or possibly reading magazines from France circa 1978...
Funnily enough, this situation probably could have been avoided had the cats been neutered
My cat still sprays even after the snip. It’s an anxiety issue poor kitty 🐈⬛

First 🥇 Second 🥈 Third 🥉 Fourth
🤣🤣🤣 I can’t believe a professional is reacting to this episode but I am totally here for this.
There's a quote in The Wire when talking about the war on drugs. "You can't even call it a war because wars end."
1:20 Don't ask me why I know all of this, but I believe what you're referring to is a "Rigor Erectus" or "Death Erection".

7:02 we have the same things here in America: Synthetic drugs (which can be very dangerous)
Plot twist: cheesing makes a return in the South Park video game "The Fractured But whole" as a special attack
In regards to acronyms, you reminded me of a scene from Red Dwarf.
“I think the real issue is what are we going to call ourselves. I vote for “the committee for the liberation and integration of terrifying organisms and their rehabilitation into society”, one drawback with that however is the abbreviation is CLITORIS”

Under your tongue, there's veins and the mucous membrane over them is not impermeable, molecules can get into your bloodstream this way instead of undergoing pretty much the same process but in the digestive system.
Loved Heavy Metal film and South Park did it Homage 😂
I dont wanna be that guy.
But I’ve never met someone who actively use drugs weekly who’s an enjoyable person to be around.
Just my two cents
8:41 -- Kenny's getting a puff-puff! As the Dragon Quest games would call it.
is it just me or does southpark deal in addictions and habitual behaviors alot?
These kid in South Park really need you 24/7 Dr Elliott.
So they figured out the euphoric state from being hanged because men had erections after being hanged. At least that’s what I remember reading. Also thanks for the list of animals to eat haha
Looking forwad to the NEJM article on this
The cat set up is based on David Lynch's 1984 Dune film.

I had a pretty bad sexual addiction. But I realized I didn't have time for other interests. I went cold turkey in 1987 for 7 years and am happy to say resisted the temptation when it presented itself. I felt that I finally had it under control, and in 1994, I decided to be sexually active again, but it slowly grew back into an addiction again until 2019. The only thing stopping me this time was the Covid epidemic. I am not sure what will happen now in 2023. I am 68 now, so maybe my age will be the thing to put it under control.
Sexual addiction is real. Especially when sexual encounters are so easily available. Although I had a friend willing to pay 10s of thousands for the experience of multi-girl sex encounters.
there's been some studies on mdma (ecstacy/molly compound) assisted therapy for long term trauma cases with some promising results. unfortunately , it's still gonna be many years till it'll be legal, if at all. recreational drugs can be helpful for dealing with mental illnesses ... selfmedication on the other hand - not so much. And so i sit and wait.
I was not expecting you to say "wee" 😆 It sounds much more cute than pee or piss
Thanks for those tips Mr Mackey 😂
Such a great episode lmfao
South Park is always a good time!
You look like Tom Ellis. It’s like Lucifer teaching about getting high off animals. 😂
Always have a sober "guide" that you trust.😊
I think another idea is Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Great film with a more introspective look at rocket.
Its just dawned on me who mr mackeys voice reminds me off... Trump
Not sure about cat pee, but Reindeer pee can. It's a method of taking mushrooms that are normally far too poisonous for humans. The More You Know!
This has nothing to do with why I have 12 cats!? Honest! :D
Episode makes me think of a song that was at number one in the UK charts in the early 90's, during drug awareness week, by a group called The Shamen, the track called "Ebeneezeer Goode". The lyrics were/are genius and the irony of the timing was beautiful, you couldn't have planned it better! I seriously recommend everyone top give it a listen!! :D
toilet wine? no....toilet high.
I know you usually stick to TV and movies but could you do a reaction to some old blog articles by The Last Psychiatrist? Maybe "The Maintenance Of Certification Exam As Fetish" or "Couple Reveals Child's Gender Five Years Too Late"?
Majorboobage is my favorite south park episode.
Mine too!
Makes sense if Kenny's got an addictive personality. His mom and dad are alcoholics.
I don't think this guy is familiar with Heavy Metal at all.
Do you know that this episode is a ripOff, Take on, Utter Homage to the 1981 movie "Heavy Metal"? Doctor, please look it up and give us your insights... PLEASE
And again, LUV from Canada, mate. And Happy Christmas 🎄🌲
As a regular user of cannabis, dmt, lsd, mdma, ketamine, mushrooms, Khat and cocaine, I don't see a problem with drugs except heroin an crack lol..
you don't have to censor the cleavage for TH-cam because it's a medical education video
Wait the cat pee thing is real o always just thought it was Southpark being southpark
My favorite episode.
Jinkx and Bendela picture :)
Very good videos and analysis, but I still can't believe there is no analysis of Neon Genesis Evangelion??
, the most psychologically dense animation of all.👌
Sadly, Covid has broken Dr. Drew's brain and that's all he ever talks about now.
Very funny show but inappropriate 😂 and he's very talented and funny
React to season 14 episode 1. Sexual healing
Lit ep
Please NEVER say cat juice ever again. 😂
