It's very much like I've worked there so long. I'm vaguely familiar with a lot of the step programs and you know the one that most people are aware of is: the first step is admitting that you have a problem, and that was something that I saw a lot of in um in the psych ward.
Imagine being a psychiatric technician at a women's residential treatment center during the chaos of Covid-19. In this episode of 'Finding OK', Hecate chats with Cailin, a non-binary essential worker who’s also a yoga enthusiast and dog lover. Cailin opens up about their unique journey through quarantine, sharing their personal battles with addiction and recovery. They offer an unfiltered look at the mental health struggles faced by both themselves and their clients during these unprecedented times.
Cailin's story isn't just about the pandemic. They delve into their past experiences with addiction, the decision to return to therapy, and the importance of self-care. This conversation also touches on broader issues, including systemic traumas like 9/11 and the impact of quarantine. As protests erupted in support of Minneapolis, Cailin reflects on the unity among the working class and the significance of these movements.
Listeners will find a mix of raw honesty and hope as Cailin shares their perspective on international events and the power of community support. Their words serve as a reminder that even in isolation, we are not alone. If you’re looking for a story that combines resilience, empathy, and a touch of humor, this episode is for you.
