And how do you balance that with the negative effect it has on everybody else in society?

I mean like LA, LA, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, all these cities are fucked right now because of,

I would say harm reduction policies have played a great role in how badly those cities are doing right now.

So like how do you balance that stuff? Let's go. go. Welcome to Citizen. We got a special

a special guest today,

Dr. Timothy Ramillion.

You are therapist

psychiatrist CSW so on and so forth I don't even know what all the words are these

days because since sometime in the mid 2000s there's been a lot of overlap

between neurology and psychology like a neuropsychiatrist is now kind of a

normal thing we'll get into that. I'm very curious about the field. But before we do get into yourself a little bit, tell me about yourself. Where did you come from?

Well, thank you for having me again. And I'm not a psychiatrist.

I have a doctor and social work, and that's kind of the pop of my credentials there.

And I have three other masters and a bachelor's as well.

What are those in?

I have a bachelor's in psychology, sociology that was my undergrad and then I went on to get my

master's of social work, my master of education, my

master's of digital marketing at Rutgers Business School, and then my doctor of social work.

And where are you from originally?

Well, I was a Coast Guard. Okay, and where are you from originally?

Well, I was a Coast Guard brat. I was born in Virginia, but we moved around a lot, so I lived in Florida, Alabama, Texas, and then we always came up to New Jersey because we had family up here and we spent all their summers up here.

So that's where I ended up after I was about eight years old.
