PWP 15: The Noise of Mental Illness

Episode Summary

TW: suicide, death, trauma In this episode, Rebecca goes through her mental health journey, which has been a long, bumpy road to the present. This is a pretty heavy episode, though we try to keep it hopeful and have plenty of laughs between us. Rebecca talks about her dad's sudden death which triggered her anxiety, depression, and PTSD, and her experience of going to the psychiatric hospital, and where she is now. (Spoiler: it's a much better place. Not perfect, but better.) We hope this episode can help break down the stigma surrounding mental disorders, trauma, and grief. We don't need to fix people in low places. We need to love them.
