Summary

hi loves! this week we're tackling mental health (as well as we can I guess lol) We talk about our journeys towards realizing (and for Drew accepting lol) our mental health problems and all the ways we've learned to help it along the way. We understand that focusing on mental health is an issue that a lot of us baddies struggle with and we want to be vulnerable with y'all in how we're navigating it all! We are by no means "fully healed" -- whatever the heck that means lol but we're growing and learning just like y'all!

We are by no means professionals so please be sure to reach out to loved ones should you need any immediate help! We wanted to include some helplines below should you need them, we love you!

Okay, friends, we're back with another episode.

0:15.0

Three in a row, let's go, that round.

0:20.0

Okay, so my name is Dyson. My name is Drew, and today we're doing a mental health check,

0:28.8

mental health check. This has been another very highly requested topic as well.

0:36.4

It's totally makes sense to me

0:37.4

because mental health is something

0:38.3

that a lot of people are talking about.

0:41.6

In society in general, which is awesome because it's super important and should have been the entire time, but here we go, right?

0:49.0

Absolutely. I think that a lot of times people are, it's like a generational thing to not check in on your mental health because obviously like older generations weren't as like aware and cognizant of it. I think it's a good thing that younger generations are like really prioritizing mental health because it is very important.

1:07.3

Yeah, 1,000 percent. So, okay, so I guess if we were to start off with like where we're at like or where we started with our own mental home personally, I think I've always had anxiety and growing up to we've looked back and been like oh yeah she definitely did because I grew like super painfully shy and the thought of people having a look at me would make me sick to my stomach and whereas Drew like doesn't care what anyone thinks about her is very it's very easy for her to go into spaces where she doesn't know anyone or you know what I mean like yeah I think yours was a very aggressive social anxiety more than anything and then also just regular too but I think social anxiety is like what exacerbated it a lot.

1:56.7

Yeah, and I think to like be around unknown people.

1:59.0

Yeah, and then I think too like because we grew up so close in age, like you're always made me like go to things I didn't want to do like let's go hang out with

2:05.4

friends at recess instead of like sit here and do nothing yeah they were so uncomfortable around people

2:12.0

that I can't even imagine like what kind of kid I would have ended up being had I not had drew there being like get up and come over here, you know, and play with us or whatever.

2:21.6

Yeah, especially when we got a little bit older,

2:24.0

like into high school and stuff.

2:26.5

Because they said, like both of us are very okay

2:28.8

with being alone too, like we have no problem,

2:31.6

like spending time by ourselves or with each other, but a lot of times I always like describe it like as like there has to be a balance right it can't always just be you by yourself like you should try to like mingle in some fashion so I would always be like come on dude come on we're gonna go we got invited we're gonna go we're gonna have a good time and then she would always come reluctantly but she would always have a good time.

2:53.6

So that's all that matters.

2:55.6

Yeah, I think it definitely got worse as I got older through high school and I definitely credit

3:00.7

our British Queen Zolella. She was the first person I'd ever seen like openly talk about having anxiety and panic attacks and like describing what it was like. What it feels like, yeah, because I just thought I was like, oh, I'm just shy and I'm like a weird kid like that's just what that means you know and so yeah remember she put out like a 30 minute video of like her first panic attack or what it meant she's also amutophobic like me so I'm like oh my gosh like that I thought it was just me that felt like that. Yeah. And so I remember watching her thing and thinking I were telling you like you think I have this and you're like I've always been here. I told me. Yeah that's so funny. Yeah, yeah I very
