The following podcast is a dear media production.

Welcome to Going Mental. This is your host,

Eileen Kelly. I'm interested in the things many of us face, but don't always talk about.

On the show, not only will I be sharing more about my own

anxiety as in depression but I'm also going to be talking to a wide range of guests about their

own mental health journeys along with professionals we're going to help educate you and

me on the ins and outs of mental illness. Can't wait for you to hear what's in

store. So on today's episode I'm going to talk about getting my period for the first time in nine years.

I'm also going to talk about my decision to get off birth control in the first place and this newfound womanhood.

You know what's nice is like you can go to Amazon and check out like all the products pretty much that I mentioned today and you can

also listen to the podcast right on there so you can go to Amazon music you can be

listening to the podcast while you're shopping around for all the period products that I talked about today.

And it's just one easy, quick stop.

I used to care so much about portraying a perfect life and acting like everything was okay

when really things were far from it. I was secretly battling anxiety, depression, and an eating disorder

so it was a lot.

I'm Victoria Garrick,

former Division I athlete,

mental health advocate, and host of RealPOT.

Every Wednesday I sit down with celebrities,

athletes, entrepreneurs, and more to talk about the inner thoughts and feelings that we're all struggling with.

So leave the filters and face tunes at the door and join me on Real Podcast. pod. So, welcome to going mental.
