I just remember, like even just coming back from the boardwalk, like lying against the window, and just like not really having the energy to like say anything or cry or anything.
Imagine feeling like your life is spinning out of control, with decisions made for you, even if it's for your own good. In this episode of 'Mind in Pieces', host Casey Kamali sits down with a friend who knows this struggle all too well. They dive into the raw and often painful experiences of dealing with mental health issues as a young adult.

The guest opens up about their time in a psychiatric hospital and the profound impact it had on them. Their candid reflections offer a window into the feelings of powerlessness that many teens face. Despite the heavy themes, the episode is also about finding strength and balance. The guest talks about the importance of forming an identity around meaningful aspects of life and how friendships can be a lifeline during tough times.
