- I've personally found DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) to be very helpful for my mental health and sobriety. It's about learning and utilizing skills including mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

| 0:00.0 | Hey guys and happy Monday. This episode is a bit of a fun and funky and real as fuck one. |
| 0:09.7 | This week I started the episode with a random tangent on a problematic woman that I found on |
| 0:16.7 | the internet. I had a lot of fun adding in audio clips and talking about something and someone |
| 0:22.8 | that I don't think is great, but also is, you know, slightly less depressing than the normal |
| 0:31.3 | people and situations that we talk about. So the first 10 minutes is going to be kind of this interesting little |
| 0:38.9 | pop culture recap. Let me know if you guys are interested in hearing more stuff like this, |
| 0:45.4 | weird happenings on the internet and social media and in pop culture. I'd be very excited to do it. |
| 0:52.5 | So I'd love to hear if it's something you guys are interested in. |
| 0:56.5 | Also, we talk about the fact that we are going on a mental health break, and I am open about |
| 1:03.1 | the fact that I relapsed last week, or I had a lapse in my sobriety. I do say during the episode that AA is not for me and I explain why. |
| 1:17.0 | And when I was listening back, I realized that there was a part where I said that a lot of people |
| 1:21.8 | go to AA for community. And luckily I have some friends that know my situation and are very supportive |
| 1:30.6 | that I can lean on. But I do want to acknowledge that I understand that that's not everyone's |
| 1:37.0 | situation. I'm quite fortunate that I have supportive people in my life. So I'm going to put some |
| 1:43.1 | resources in the show notes about |
| 1:45.3 | some mental health stuff and about resources you can look into if you're struggling with addiction. |
| 1:52.2 | And I just wanted to give this little note at the top since it's a little bit of a funky |
| 1:56.8 | episode. And I did want to let you guys know that in the absence of me giving an alternative |
| 2:03.6 | to AA in the episode, I will be putting some in the show notes. All right, hope you enjoy. |
| 2:09.9 | That is so fucked up. It's fucked up. So fucked up. It is just so damn fucked up. |
| 2:22.3 | It is just so damn fucked up. |
| 2:25.5 | That's fucked up. |
