Be advised, this episode was recorded in an office setting where I couldn't be loud & clear, so the second chapter is a little distorted but still audible, while the first & third are too clear, enough for listeners to hear my nose hairs swaying in the wind as I speak. Keep in mind I recorded the first few batches to come a year before I even considered being a podcaster, let alone an audio editor. Audio editing is a complete succubus bitch, so you all better enjoy this shit. Transcriptions are available because I care.

Emotions have a molecular effect on our bodies. People who internalize more or have issues with maintaining lighter moods have a higher likelihood of health problems that can range from migraines to cancer. This, also, goes the other way for people who are always happy. They usually do not have as many health concerns, if any at all. People who have a hereditary disease or high predisposition to certain diseases will benefit most from maintaining happier moods as some of the chemicals that are released have a positive effect on bitch cells, like cancer. At every level, we are affected by our moods.

The brain does its part in the body as the power center but how we think, how/what we feel emotionally/physically, etc. is different across every person. What works for one person may/will not work for the next when it comes to doctors/therapists, medications, etc. It’s so important that we be an actual functioning part of our own mental health treatment and wellness, and stop leaving it completely up to others to fix. Why should anyone be tasked with fixing your bullshit while you remain fucked up because you aren’t/don’t want to be active in your own damn process? Looking at oneself is difficult but we cannot allow someone else’s biased eyes lead our soul’s way. We must be accountable to/for our own soul’s evolution and progression. Nothing external will ever be able to help you heal internally. We must always refer to our own capabilities, strengths, & even finding closure, forgiveness, and solace in our traumas & weaknesses – all, to help us heal.

If you’re on meds now that aren’t helping, talk to your doctor about changing them or tapering down/off to see how u do with switching up to more CBT/PT and less/no meds. If they don’t want to help you work through balancing your moods in a more natural way, find another doc that’s willing to do what’s best for you. That’s absolutely your right. You're not married to the first one you see. Albeit, good ones are hard to find and this is the reason most depressed people stay where they are in the downward spiral of the vortex.

Fear is something we have manufactured as a race of beings. It isn’t a real, psychologically (emotional or mental) tangible thing. We cannot fear what we discover in our closets or our face(s) behind our face. We must make those discoveries so that we can evolve into our best selves. If we don’t, the face we hide will become our true face. I ask again, will we be happy with what we see? I put this here as a reminder to love yourself enough to not fear you.

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: b
