we have to set boundaries in life. it’s a pretty hard thing to do which unfortunately you probably know will make you a better person and make you grow. setting boundaries is tough not only for yourself internally but its hard for the people around you. if you’ve always been a people pleaser and all of a sudden you’re saying no to everyone - which means actually getting interpersonal and understanding the things you do and don’t want to do - then it sucks to say but you may lose people in you...

depressed girl's guide to life
authenticity is cool now. within reason.
we have a world now in which was can talk about therapy freely or if we’re feeling depressed or even talk about medication and what we’re on in a way that we would just never have talked about it even just a few years ago. so this is amazing but with all amazing things we have to think about regulation, right? its a new thing just like bitcoin and all these other unregulated markets. what’s too much when talk about our mental health? it feels so good to be open about it but just b...

perfectionism is an absolute waste of time
i always wanted to be perfect. and i still do im not even going to pretend like perfection isn’t something i am absolutely striving for and it absolutely paralyzes me on a day to day basis because if im not perfect then whats the point in doing anything, right? but life isn’t just one path to perfection and oh yeah you got the right answer because you followed this systematic process of doing something. that’s just not most of life. life is actually nuanced.follow the insta: @depressed...

on having ‘bad person’ withdrawal
the purpose of this podcast is to focus on self betterment. that was the goal for me - that was the most important thing to showcase and talk about going from more negative ways of thinking and behaviors to more positive ones. my issue that comes up and i feel like i can almost describe it as recovery in a way - because i think about my old ways and get a craving - the 'healing journey' makes me have bad person withdrawal every so often. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguidetolife...

depressed girl's guide to life
how do we let go of our egos?
i didn’t really know what an ego was for a while. i knew having a big ego meant like you kind of thought you were better than other people and kind of an asshole and probably a man? i saw egos as this very stereotypical type of thing. again things you see in tv and movies and i never just never thought about how any of it manifested in real life. i never thought about my ego because i thought - get this - that i didn’t have one. i'm clearly wrong. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguideto...

let's talk about body dysmorphia
we talk a lot about our minds here on this show. what we haven’t talked about yet is our brain’s connection to our body. we haven't talked about bodies. and its a weird one. why’s it weird? because realistically maybe situations and our feelings and shit in our mind can be like subjective right? the weird thing about bodies and feeling that dysphoric and confused connection to your body is that for the most part bodies are just bodies. your body just is. and sure maybe you feel bl...

what the hell is trauma actually?
if i asked you to define trauma, what would you say? it’s not a question with an easy answer. for one thing, trauma is a lot of different things to different people. some may repress or others may have leaned into the feelings heavily. sometimes i wonder - does the bigness of the trauma question, the unending possibilities of answers, the vagueness and open-endedness of the whole concept of trauma. is that part of what makes trauma so bad? trauma. such a big scary word. let's demystify ...

how cynicism fed my depression
it’s easy to devolve into cynicism. it's so fun and relatable to self-deprecating. first of all, all your friends are probably doing it. genuinely do this the next time you’re with people - ask how are you and listen to their responses. hardly anyone will say they’re doing well or earnestly genuinely say “i’m good”. but also, your brain is listening. and you're going to be more miserable if you keep telling the world that you are. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguidetolifeb...

it's the anxiety episode!
the anxiety episode! if this is depressed girl’s guide to life, why are we talking about anxiety? they’re so different, right? depression feels like such a downer in the worst way possible and anxiety feels like such an upper… in the worst way possible also. that in itself should show that they’re honestly very much in the same vein of what we’re talking about – shitty feelings. they accompany each other so well. like peanut butter and jelly, champagne and caviar, earth crushing sadness and l...

on the complexities of attachment styles
most of us hate being abandoned. what do we do when the fear of it makes us stagnate and completely avoid relationships? whether anxious or avoidant or some sort of mix - we need to figure out how it manifests in our interactions and adjust, without judging ourselves or others. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguidetolifebuy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/depressedgirlsdepressedgirlsguidetolife.comSupport the show

on not having closure
do we need the closure conversation? when something ends do we need the big production to realize that we can finally get over it? my theory is getting “closure” is an internal process. we can’t rely on others. we have ourselves and that’s saying a lot. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguidetolifebuy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/depressedgirlsdepressedgirlsguidetolife.comSupport the show

on breaking out of the comfort cocoon
why would anyone do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable? if you could just stay in bed and watch tv all day in your pjs, wouldn't you? comfort makes us feel good. it doesn't challenge us. but when we get too comfortable we can slip into depression patterns without even realizing it. today, we talk about breaking out of the comfort cocoon and breaking away from depression in the process.

on hitting emotional puberty at 26
do you remember hitting puberty? it was awful. it was physically painful and emotionally debilitating. but everyone only talks about the physically - how you grow and get tall but no one talks about how your mind is wrecked and ravaged by hormones and the onset of new fun mental issues… for years to come. now as an adult - it’s time to take the emotional aspects of puberty into our hands and actually grow this time. follow the insta: @depressedgirlsguidetolifebuy me a coffee: https://www...
