Being vulnerable takes courage because it takes us to a place we often don't want to go, but it can also be a source of strength.
What if being vulnerable could actually make you stronger? Dr. Madelyn Rousku, a board-certified psychiatrist and chief of psychiatry at the Claudia Black Young Adult Center, explores this intriguing idea in her latest conversation on 'Beyond Theory'. Vulnerability often gets a bad rap, seen as a sign of weakness or something to be exploited. But Dr. Rousku flips that notion on its head, arguing that it takes real courage to show our softer sides.
She dives into her experiences treating young adults facing a variety of psychiatric issues—from substance use and eating disorders to mood and anxiety challenges, autism, and even gender identity concerns. The episode is particularly timely as it also touches on how the pandemic has affected mental health across the board. Dr. Rousku’s compassionate approach offers a fresh perspective on overcoming societal pressures and seeking help when needed.
This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone grappling with mental health issues or supporting someone who is. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that might just change the way you view vulnerability.
