Even if you feel those strong emotions, you can take an approach that the future you is going to be happy about rather than what feels right in that exact moment.

You know, if something is important to address, it's going to be just as important to address another time.

If giving yourself some time to sit on what happens, It's going to be just as important to address another time.

If giving yourself some time to sit on what happened

dulls the intense feeling that you have and you don't feel the same need to respond,

good.

If you do, if you feel like you need to talk to somebody about this or you need to address the situation even after waiting, then okay, that's fine.

At least you've given yourself some time to sort of come down a few notches and approach it in a constructive way rather than just being purely reactive.

Hey everybody, before we start the show I want to make a couple disclaimers.

This show does cover a wide variety of topics related to mental health and life in general

and some of those could be sensitive for you.

I want to simultaneously encourage you to be brave in consuming difficult content but also

respect and recognize your limitations so please use your best judgment.

I will never be offended if you need to skip a question

or an episode entirely, but feel free to feel it out,

check out the episode, and just see what happens.

If you need to skip, that's OK.

But feel free to give it a

shot first. I also need to say that while I am a psychologist I'm not your

psychologist and I'm not your therapist. This is not intended to be direct

medical advice and you should not use this as a substitute for professional help.

So with those said, let's go ahead and get into the show. All right, hello friends of all varieties. This is the Hardcore Health
