Hey, deserving listeners. This is Chapter 2 in my deep dive on a cast member by the name of Chris on Love is Blind season 10,

in which he gave us some data to hypothesize about what was going on with him.

I can never know what's really going on, and I'm quite positive. If I were to work with Chris in person as a clinician, I would have a much more nuanced, much more detailed, maybe even completely different perspective or different hypothesis as to what was wrong or not wrong with them. I can't really know. But the data of which there is a lot of data that Chris actually displayed in front of the cameras willingly.

And a woman came forward, an ex-girlfriend of his, came forward with a recording and an account.

Chris had consented to that recording.

And it gives us a lot of data to hypothesize about.

And it is a specialty of mine, these things, psychopathy, lack of empathy, any social narcissistic personality,

borderline or personality disorders in general, attachment.

And I think it gives us an opportunity to understand the people who suffer from this sort of thing but also I think all

of us have these defenses that crop up from that from time or time we've we've had people

in our life that were like this so this first bit

is going to be on the free podcast feed i don't know how long it is and then after that it'll be

for patrons each of these chapters there's going to be three chapters on this deep dive

and i think each chapter is two to three hours long, but there'll be a little bit

here on the free feed. So let's get into that. Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. And if you

sign up, please use the link below because that really helps us out. It's April, tax month. Let's talk about financial

stress. Stressing about money can cause a lot of mental health problems, right? It can obviously

cause anxiety, but also depression, sleep problems, health problems, or even marital conflict.

As a self-employed person for the past 30 months, I've had my fair share of terrifying months.

I know what it's like to feel like the walls are caving in around you and you don't know what to do.

Of course, therapy is a great place to talk about this, not only to work on the anxiety so you can face the challenge fresh, but also, for example, you can go to couple therapy and work on communication so that

you can face the financial challenges as a team. Well, one place you can find a therapist is at BetterHelp.
