It was a really bad day, and it just freaked me out because I, not that I've been like

been like, so amazing and then all of a sudden I had a bad day, but I've been like kind of low.

And then I was like so low that day that I found it difficult to physically move.

And then I'm like, I have to like care for my children today.

And I don't know like, how am I going to do this?

I just like kind of want to die because I just can't move.

A show about therapy.

I'm Hillary McBride.

This episode, we're going to meet Bell.

We've changed her name to protect her privacy.

As you're listening, it's important to remember that I'm Bell's therapist, and what we talk

about is best for her and no one else.

But while you listen, I hope you can find something to take away for yourself.

I'm always afraid of like going all over the edge.
