It is maddening that he thinks an App (that costs money BTW) is going to help repair these damaged people. Even if Dr. Phil plans to foot the bill for the app, that family needs deep face-to-face and maybe even group therapy. Possibly even OT or PT. I was only paying partial attention at the end, so maybe he did offer more assistance. I'm just glad Robin didn't make a play for her 5 minutes of stage time.

I think that Dr. Lawless expected to run expensive tests and give the delusional son some vitamins and "cure" him on his own. Either way, the delusional son most likely will not respond to treatment.

Jaded October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 (edited) ALL NEW Monday - October 12, 2015 "I Reunited with My Birth Mother and Now She Says She Wishes She Never Had Me" Adopted as a baby, Rhonda says she wondered throughout her childhood why her birth mother placed her for adoption. At 24, she finally met her birth mother, Terri, and says she learned something no child should ever have to hear: Terri said she had tried to end her pregnancy by drinking an abortion concoction. Since meeting, Rhonda and Terri say their relationship has not been what they had hoped for -- but Rhonda says one good thing that came from the reunion is the unbreakable bond she now has with her younger sister, Beth. Beth and Rhonda say that since reuniting, Terri has become a “complete mess,” adding that she is mean, nasty and verbally abusive – especially when she’s inebriated or high on pills -- accusations Terri strongly denies. Terri says that Rhonda has turned Beth, and that the two have joined forces against her. She says she can’t believe Beth asked Rhonda to be her Matron of Honor at her upcoming wedding, knowing how “horrible” Rhonda has been to her. But Beth says she won’t even invite Terri to the wedding unless she cleans up her act. Who is causing the drama? Can Dr. Phil bring peace to this toxic trio, and can this mom finally bury the hatchet with her daughters? Plus, learn why an accusation of molestation may be at the root of this family’s resentment. Tuesday - October 13, 2015 "How Did Our Son Go from College-Bound Star Athlete to a Homeless 'Moocher' Sleeping in a Tool Shed?" Rachael and her husband, Tino, face off with their 22-year-old son, Ian, who they say went from being a star student and athlete to a “moocher” who now sleeps in their tool shed! They say Ian dropped out of college, quit his job and moved home, but when he wouldn’t work or return to school, they kicked him out. To get Ian to leave, Rachael and Tino say they had to get a temporary restraining order and call the cops to have him escorted out. Ian says it’s outrageous that his own parents would throw him out — making him homeless with a criminal record and forcing him to sneak into their tool shed at night just to have a place to sleep. Rachael and Tino say they are not only concerned about the changes in Ian’s path, but also his personality — claiming that Ian may be delusional because he has even accused them of raping him — an accusation they strongly deny. Could there be a deeper problem at play? Can Dr. Phil help this family come together to make a life plan for Ian? And, will Ian ever return to the person his parents say he used to be? Wednesday - October 14, 2015 Exclusive: High School Hero Defends Blind Teen in Alleged Bully Attack Caught on Video Huntington Beach High School student Cody Pines is being hailed as a hero after the teen was caught on tape taking down an accused bully who was allegedly beating up legally-blind classmate, Austin Higley. Video of the incident was posted on the Internet and went viral. Today, for the first time, Cody and Austin are together and speaking out in an exclusive interview with Dr. Phil. Thursday - October 15, 2015 Oprah’s Big Project and Guilt, Grief, Forgiveness: Best Friends Connecting after Tragedy Oprah Winfrey sits down with Dr. Phil to share her new, week-long documentary series “Belief.” The documentary depicts how people with a wide range of beliefs search for deeper meaning and connection with the world around them. Through vivid, emotional storytelling and cinematic visual imagery, “Belief” illuminates the best of faith and spiritual practices from around the world — the rituals, stories and relationships that bind us all together as human beings. The series premieres on Sunday, October 18 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network. And then, a mother who says her belief in God helped her through the worst day of her life — when her friend accidentally ran over her 17-month-old daughter and killed her.

Yes, the guy may have some psychosis or mental illness, and if he does, I hope he agrees to get some help. Bi-polar, schizophrenia, personality disorders, ADHD etc.etc. diagnoses have gone up in the past 15 years; mental health issues are on the rise. It is unfortunate and heartbreaking for those affected and their families. However, some people are just plain old-fashioned, self-indulgent, ungrateful, entitled assholes.

I don't usually watch this show but I saw it today and it upset me so much I had to see if people wrote anything about it. I think the kid appeared to have a mental illness but they were downplaying that so Dr Phil could plug his friend's program on addiction. The parents never brought him to a psychiatrist? Even though they witnessed him talking to someone who wasn't there, he lost interest in sports and school, he couldn't hold a job. (I did not like his father). That usually isn't "laziness" but something more serious like depression or beginnings of schizophrenia which typically occurs in young teens/adults. There is not way to blame marijuana on all of his symptoms. Pot is way too common a drug. People use it and function just fine as long as there aren't any other issues. Doctors even prescribe it to relieve some symptoms of bipolar or schizophrenia. I hope someone competent is able to properly diagnosis the poor kid and he improves enough to have a normal life. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/101044-all-episodes-talk-let%E2%80%99s-talk-about-dr-phil-the-show/page/15/#findComment-1599474

Thank you for confirming much of what I was thinking when I watched this. I've noticed lately that Dr. Phil has had a number of episodes that were really NOT appropriate for public airing. The recent one about the adopted daughter and her biological mother and sister was really troubling. Listening to that young man left me rather troubled for the reasons you pointed out. One thing that I didn't catch, I don't know if Dr. Phil or the parents addressed it, was whether he was adopted or the natural child of the mother and not the father. His biraciality didn't enter the discussion during the time I watched. I would have expected that Dr. Phil might have addressed that aspect as a part of the young man's identity issues etc. There were way too many serious issues that just seemed to skim by, i.e. suggestion of him being raped as an initiation (that has been found to be rather prevalent in the sports teams at university levels unfortunately) or that he partook in such an act. Which made me wonder if it was a college sports ugly ritual. But so much of this was just skimmed over to make time for his pitchman to step up with his addiction program spiel. I too hope he gets good help. There were a lot of things that were pretty serious whether delusional thinking or actual events. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/101044-all-episodes-talk-let%E2%80%99s-talk-about-dr-phil-the-show/page/15/#findComment-1599649

When I graduated from high school at 17 my parents said their job was done and I was on my own. I had three months to find a job and a place to live.

In watching him, he really appeared to have disorganized thinking which is a classic sign of mental illness. And the fact that he was able to function normally and go to school until very recently suggests that something happened, most likely a developing illness. If he did develop an illness such as schizophrenia he must be suffering. It's not unusual to try and quiet the symptoms with drugs.

Courtney says she uses heroin to help treat her PTSD and to help numb the pain of enduring numerous sexual abuse-related traumas over the years. Bill claims that his ex-wife, Marlena, enables Courtney, and that’s why their daughter can’t stay clean. But Marlena says she can’t turn her back on Courtney, like Bill has — an accusation that Bill denies — and admits that she’s even driven Courtney to buy drugs. Can Bill and Marlene put their own issues aside and become the united front Courtney needs? Is Courtney ready to face her demons and reveal the secrets she’s been holding inside? And, are Bill and Marlena prepared hear what she has to say? Tune in to this emotional Dr. Phil. Wednesday - October 21, 2015 Hollywood Facialist Accused of Hiring a Hit Man Speaks Out for the First Time Hollywood skin specialist to the stars Dawn DaLuise says she built her business and reputation on her avant garde beauty treatments and celebrity clients, such as Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow, and it wasn’t long before she received national attention in major publications. Then, in March of 2014, Dawn says she once again received national attention, but for an entirely different reason. She was arrested in a murder-for-hire plot and spent just under a year in jail. In the months leading to her arrest, Dawn claims she was the target of a vicious campaign to destroy everything she had built. She claims her tires were slashed, Craigslist ads were created offering free sex — resulting in men showing up at her salon — and sexually-explicit flyers super-imposed with her face and her two daughters, were strewn about her business and front lawn. Dawn says she was convinced the person behind the attack was a “rival” aesthetician, Gabriel Suarez, but in a bizarre twist, as she watched her reputation diminish from behind bars, Dawn claims she learned the shocking truth of who was really behind the campaign to destroy her. Can Dr. Phil help her make sense of what happened and help her repair her reputation? Thursday - October 22, 2015 "I'm Fighting for Custody of My Child with My Ex-Husband Who I Believe is Stalking Me" Leslie says her ex-husband, Andy, is controlling, abusive and narcissistic, and she desperately hopes one day to have joint custody of their 5-year-old son. She claims Andy stalks her by tapping her phone, tracking her car with GPS, and that even his family is spying on her from the trees. Andy has primary custody of their son and says that’s the way it should be — he adamantly denies Leslie’s accusations and claims she is delusional, a liar, and can’t be trusted with their boy. He says their seven-year marriage ended because of Leslie’s drug relapses and paranoia, and claims that he once crawled around the ground with a flashlight looking for “people who were stalking her.” Leslie admits that she has a criminal record stemming from problems with substance abuse, but says that’s all in the past. Leslie’s mother, Myrna, says she knew Andy was “bad news from day one,” and claims Andy is a control freak who uses her grandson to get what he wants. But Myrna admits that her relationship with Leslie is difficult, and that they fought as recently as the night before appearing on the show. Don’t miss this emotional showdown as Dr. Phil gets to the core of this family’s problems and what’s best for the 5-year-old boy stuck in the middle. Friday - October 23, 2015 "Dr. Phil, I Need Your Help Again: My Daughter is Hitchhiking and Train Hopping as a Portland Street Kid" Five years ago, Tammy came to Dr. Phil for help with what she called unleashing her “special brand” of anger on her then 15 and 13-year-old daughters, Tatiana and Tameeka — yelling and screaming at them and anyone else who got in her way. Since the show, Tammy says she has curbed her anger, but needs Dr. Phil’s help again! She says three years ago Tatiana, now 20, stopped going to school, so she gave her three choices — get a job, volunteer, or take a class – or she would have to move out. She says Tatiana took that as an eviction notice, left home, and has been living on the streets ever since. Now, Tammy wonders if it’s her fault that her daughter is homeless, hitchhiking and train hopping around the country. It’s been two years since Tammy has seen Tatiana, and three years since Tatiana has seen her younger sister, Tameeka. Don’t miss this emotional reunion as Dr. Phil brings this family together in an effort to heal the damage between a mother and daughter and reunite two sisters who miss each other.

There is not enough eye-bleach to erase seeing Dr. Phil and Robin's bedroom or seeing Dr. Phil pretend that he is trying on Robin's shoes. Wasn't it enough that we have to see all of the videos that Robin makes for Dr. Phil? We have suffered enough. I like Dr. Phil and some of his advice but I cannot take anymore of Robin and all of the product promotion. Robin thinks that every idea in her head is just so fantastic and must be shared. She is like a talking bobblehead. She needs to STFU. I would donate $10 if we only had to see Robin walk off of the stage with Dr. Phil and never hear from her again. $15 if we did not have to hear about Doctor on Demand, Revelation, or When Georgia Smiled, and $20 for the combination package. The grandchildren are precious but I don't want to see them either. I need to put $2 (one $1 for each) in a jar for each day that Doctor on Demand or When Georgia Smiled is promoted as a part of a Christmas Savings Program. For shits and giggles, I am going to start it today and see how much I have this time next year. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/101044-all-episodes-talk-let%E2%80%99s-talk-about-dr-phil-the-show/page/15/#findComment-1617045

Gam2 October 19, 2015 Share October 19, 2015 Just wow. Could Robin be anymore full of herself?! She's so over the top with the "cutesy, girly" act and "making hishstory" by walking off the set with them. Why in the world do these people think this is such an honor? I've noticed lately that Phil isn't looking well and acts like he can't turn his head. He also looked halfway embarrassed at how Robin was acting on the show. Just for shits and grins, I tried to find some old photos of Robin, from college onward. Nope. Nothing. Guess she doesn't want people to know how much plastic surgery she's had. I'm downright embarrassed for these people. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/101044-all-episodes-talk-let%E2%80%99s-talk-about-dr-phil-the-show/page/15/#findComment-1618875

Tunia October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 ^^^I posted about this same thing back in May in the "Phil, the Man" thread, but no-one seems to have come up with an answer. It's such an odd movement. Tunia May 17 2015. 12:12 pm Not that I spend much time thinking about Dr. $hill, but anytime I see him I'm struck by the fact that his head and shoulders apparently can't work independently. Does he have some kind of a skeletorial or muscular condition? He never just turns his head...it's always an entire upper body movement. Anyone know?

Jaded October 20, 2015 Share October 20, 2015 I'm sure if it was up to Phub to disclose why his head and shoulders are like that he'd attribute it to playing football when he was young. If that's the real reason we'll probably never know either way unless Phub and Co. find a way to make money off addressing our inquiries. Of course this is the guy who continues to put out diet books and other diet related items without addressing his own weight issue and doing something about it.

Don't people usually name charities in memory of someone who suffered from, died from or was a victim of whatever the cause is; such as cancer, domestic violence, etc?

suzeecat October 23, 2015 Share October 23, 2015 I think Dr. Phil has a great talent for getting to the bottom of people's B.S. I just wish he'd keep his family and all their sales pitches off the show. It's really a turnoff for me. I agree that Robin is just - well - creepy and when she does that "signature walkoff" it just looks like she's thinking to herself "everyone look at ME! - I'm the pretty pretty princess!"
