Dose Of Vitamin J Show

Fresh out of a therapy session, Vitamin J sits down and gets honest about what it actually looks like to move through the hardest seasons of life with your eyes open and your feet still moving. He explores the quiet truth that real connection — friendship, family, the people we show up for — is itself a form of healing, even when we never call it that. And he's clear about where things stand: not...

What does it actually mean to be alive — not just breathing, but feeling alive? In this episode, host James takes a raw, unscripted look at life not as a slogan or a performance, but as testimony. Drawing from years of personal survival — trauma, grief, identity loss, and the slow crawl back toward clarity — this is a conversation about what life actually includes: the pain, the confusion, the rec...

A calm, at times a little colorful, present dialogue. You must understand life is important now. Time is up. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dose-of-vitamin-j-show--5673825/support . Namaste. #LHMA

The word "just" gets thrown around a lot — just get up, just move on, just try harder — as if a condition, an illness, or a wound can be switched off like a light. It can't. No one can "just" anything their way out of clinical depression, PTSD, or any other legitimate struggle, and this episode calls that out plainly. But there's another definition of just — one rooted in fairness, reason, and wha...

Episode 143 - The "Impossible" What does "impossible" actually mean — and have you been using it wrong? In this episode, we break down one of the most overused and misunderstood words in the human experience. Starting with the actual dictionary definition, he challenges the way modern society stretches language until it loses meaning — and why that matters for your mental health, your relationship...

In this episode, I talk a little about what it feels like coming out of a legitimate psychotic episode, and continue authentic mental health recovery. We touch on Depression, perception vs reality and the dangerous idea that the opinions of Person A dictates the life of Person B. This episode marks another major turning point for me and the show both (obviously). Not perfection, regrowing clarity,...

 I do not carry anything for anyone else. That includes emotional burdens/dead weight. This epsidoe goes into a little detail on where everything is today (recorded 02/22/26), which includes being fully detatched from all that harmed and completely forgiving the same as well as within.  "What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly" - Mortica Addams Become a supporter of this podcast: https:...

Reflecting on the monetary costs of it all, alongside what lingers of them does today. Further progress in healing and shared support along the way. FAR more than just Facebook and a (had to exist a decade prematurely and out of necessity rather than hobby), podcast. Just keep going! Namaste.

Never give up no matter who you are! Just keep going. Life is not to be cast aside or treated like some cheap game. There is no more valuable anything on this Earth than life itself and we all know that. I personally did not need to endure through all the mess that led to this podcast existing a decade earlier than had been initially planned as it is merely the extension of my deceased wife and my...

Onward this specific Human goes. Hell on Earth is indeed a nightmare and it's own additional form of trauma. Somehow, some way, never giving up and always striving onward towards "who you wanted to be" in the first place is essentially a recharge of a battery. Meditation, therapy, old and new to me music, wrestling, family time and simply regaining the abily to be present in my own mind and life i...

 On what would've been my wife's 39th birthday (and is also D Day), I take a few minutes to reflect on Her, life itself of course, and just where my own overall health progress is right now.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dose-of-vitamin-j-show--5673825/support .

 In real time forward movement continuing. Letting go of all that drags life into the abyss, while honoring that which made it worth living. No matter opinions, diagnoses or anything else, it is not only possible to choose life repeatedly, it is (very obviously), necessary.   Do not succumb to popular opinion, entropy, depression and so on. Easier said than done and I understand completely why tha...

Life itself, like time itself, never changed. Coming to a place of manageable clarity overall, while still being in the midst of the chaos created when things go downhill to begin with (ie the same chaos as anyone else in the world), even as standing back up.   The handling of this situation locally was abysmal. While so, SO much could've been avoided, we don't live in that fantasyland universe. S...

 Personal progress as of mid-late April of 2025 vs the last few years on top of the prior decades. Authentic support to others going through similar seasons of life itself be you a man or woman, old or young and so on. Life is the uniting force I am speaking of/through/from no matter who any of us happens to believe ourselves to be, here we stand.  The journey of life is obviously a marathon. For...

 As I continute forward in my own personal life, as well as the overall health journey that came from somewhere back there and led to a nearly fatal situation that easily could've had me dead and gone here today in 2025. The fact that I am alive is a testament to the incredible, often shapeshifting in spots, but STILL the same in most of the spots with most of the people.  For better or for worse,...

Current progress on Host's health as well as encouragement and active sharing of motivation to literally just keep going. Poor audio quality remains a direct result of how this had to be forced into existence and will improve. Thanks for understanding.
