Therapy is the closest thing that I can get to an owner's manual for my brain. Our brains and our lives don't come with owner's manuals, and for me, therapy is the closest thing that I can get to an owner's manual for my brain, running stuff by my therapist, getting her objective input on things and especially helping hear the ridiculous things come out of my mouth when I tell her the things I say to myself, and that's helpful for me.
Ever wondered what it's like to dive into the world of psychedelics while battling mental health issues? Comedian Neal Brennan takes you on a wild ride in this episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour'.
