Are You Crazy?‪!‬ Ellia Pikri

When you think "depression", you probably see a sad person who can't bring themselves to do anything... and you'd only be half correct. Depression has many faces. Could one of these faces be yours? Content warning for suicide mention.

Look, I get it. Having a mental illness isn't easy. Here's the thing though; you are still responsible for any damage or hurt feelings you cause during your worst days. On this episode, I reveal a little too much about my past to make a case for accountability even during your worst days. 

On this episode of "Are You Crazy?!", feeling bad never felt so good. 

The pandemic rages on, stress levels are at a record high (probably?) and lots of us are feeling worried and helpless. I thought it would be cool to talk about one good way to feel bad. Side bar: every time you hear 'mindfulness', take a shot.

In the first ever episode, your host Ellia Pikri talks about therapy—how much it costs, homework, what to expect, and why it's much, MUCH more than just lying down on the couch while a therapist tells you that you have mommy issues.
