It makes total sense when you think about it, right?

Depression is a tricky bastard, and if you think about it,

you have to find the motivation to do things about your lack of motivation.

Right? How does that work? How do you find motivation when you don't have any motivation?

So you're using non-existent motivation to find motivation to do things about your lack of motivation.

It's a conundrum.

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 and 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 okay, but you know, 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 Self-Help

Podcast episode 278. I'm your host Dr. Robert Duff, aka Duff the Psych.

I make mental health content for real people, just like you.

Today I have a question and answer. Two really interesting questions,

both having a little bit to do with therapy but with some extra elements in there.

Nothing that is to, you know, probably too triggering or dramatic or anything like that.

But yeah, really good questions. If you guys want to send me a question you can do so by shooting

me an email to duff the site at email.com. Please do not send it to me on social media. I'll lose it or I won't
