3.18 That one time Claire saw a Psychic…

Sometimes life throws something really big or hard at us and we believe we need help ASAP. So obviously, you text your therapist or find a psychic, right?!? Jk. But Claire did hire a psychic once and we haze her accordingly. Something else is happening though when we don’t give ourselves a bit of breathing room for our nervous system to settle and regulate…we take to the internet. What happens when the internet becomes your nervous system? This episode explores self-diagnosis culture, algorithmic reinforcement, health anxiety, therapy speak, and the psychological effects of constantly consuming mental health online.
