We've returned to a new year with the old Our Good Bad Brain format. I talk a bit about the new year and facing our cycles of relearning, and then we get into a really nice talk with Maria from Australia. She talks about anxiety, depression, borderline personality, and we find some common ground discussing our tendency to romanticize our dangerous or damaging behaviors. We discuss a bit more than usual about alcohol use as well, more than I think we've talked about on the pod in the past. She discusses self-harming in ways I've never heard people talk before, so openly and clearly about the internal experience of why. Maria has experience with some different medications (SSRIs in particular). She also discusses her expriences with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy and discusses some of the differences between CBT and DBT. We talk a bit about suicidal ideation as well, and getting through those headspaces. I think there's a good chance you'll see some of yourself in this, I sure did.
