How Mental Health Affects Dating (Mood Disorders, Healing & Growth)

from Manic & Medicated · host Carissa

I'm back, hopefully for good this time. I've spent the last 7 months in therapy, a lot of therapy. I've learned a lot about how I show up in relationships, my flaws, missteps, short comings, whatever it is. But I've also discovered a lot of things I put up with due to it becoming my normal. Mental health is tricky and I don't have all the answers. Some days I feel like I'm Elle Woods, super intelligent, in a stable way. Other days I feel like Kanye West, super intelligent, in a not so stable way. I just know I'm on the right track. I hope whoever is listening can find comfort in knowing you're not alone in this life. Dating is hard. Mental health struggles are hard. Learning to be alone is hard. LIFE IS HARD.Fan Mail HereSupport the show
