Hello, my beautiful beans and welcome to today's episode. So this episode is all going to be about

independence, the importance of independence, why it should be a non-negotiable in your life,

how to get more independence. And I'm also going to be really breaking down what independence

is and what it isn't, because I think that sometimes the lines are a little bit blowed when it

comes to figuring out what people mean by independence or what it means to be independent.

I think that a lot of people think that it might clash with vulnerability and needing to rely on someone or someone having your back and needing that.

There's some differences here.

So I'm really going to clarify what I mean by your need

for independence and why it is crucial no matter where you are in life, no matter what situation

you're in, whether it's financial independence, emotional independence, et cetera, et cetera.

So before we get into that, not much to update you on my life thus far.

Everything's going swell and dandy.

I wanted to get straight into the brain fact of today.

So it's a pretty interesting syndrome.

It's called erotomania or it's also known as de, okay, just bear with me.

It's also known as de clarimbalts.

D separate word clarimbolts syndrome.

So this is categorized as a subtype of a delusional disorder in the DSM-5.

And it's this psychiatric disorder slash syndrome, which is character, this is so interesting.

It's characterized by this delusion that someone of a higher status, like a social status, normally a celebrity or just someone with a lot of power,

is in love with you. So you just got this delusion that they're in love with you. And normally,

the people that have this delusion are typically really shy and quiet, typically dependent women.
