from Men Speaking Out · host Bazz and Dr. Jeremy Thompson, MD

Episode 94MSO spoke with Dr. Jeremy Thompson, a family practitioner specializing in cognitive, narrative, and solution-based therapies. As the author of UNDERSTAND YOUR TRUE IDENTITY: Discover the Real You and Enjoy Healthier Relationships (Morgan James Publishing, January 6, 2026), he explores how modern mental health language shapes our understanding of ourselves. Dr. Thompson introduces the concept of "The Diagnosis Generation," highlighting the trend of adopting psychological labels as personal identity and the effects this has on self-perception. He explains that today, mental-health terminology and self-diagnosis are widespread, leading people to define themselves by conditions rather than experiences. Through his Positive-Centered approach, Dr. Thompson helps individuals separate their core self from learned behaviors, enabling a healthier and lasting change.Websites: https://understandyourtrueidentity.com/ , https://drjeremythompson.com/ Send us Fan MailMen Speaking Out...Talking to reveal, not conceal! menspeakingout.com
