“And that there need not be any sham in it. And there are tools that can help. And I think that hopefully there are others out there who are also having these conversations, but at the very least you being willing to come on and talk about this means a lot to me.

“Heart, not divorce it from myself, not hate that part of myself, not try to compartmentalize it and lock it away. Will say you're going to deal with it, whether you deal with it or not. What I mean by that is like you can choose to sort of. Look at it and in the light and incorporate it and sort of thank it in some ways for what it's taught you and enabled you to endure so that you can help other people to do the same. Or you can lock it away and you can have it manifest in the anger and frustration. Or you can have it kind of seep out through the cracks. And deal with it in a much more complicated way. So for me, it is in a way putting on not necessarily rose colored glasses, but looking for the silver lining and trying to look for the gift that is attached to the pain.”

Like they're not diametrically opposed. They're actually integrally related, right? And so one thing I've tried very hard to do.

And I look at the teachers and I look at the writers now that I've gotten to know some of these writers personally.

Like, no, you wouldn't have any shame associated with that. And similarly, I'm not saying flippantly that you should just brush aside any concerns about how things will be perceived because I think that over time this will become a broader conversation as more and more people Come out of the closet, so to speak, with something that I think is actually the rule, not the exception. Certainly, these are experiences and conditions and injuries that can be rehabbed and they can be prehabbed also, right? So you can do things to fix it. You could also do”

“And a lot of people experience these, whether it's single acute events that have a traumatic impact and lead their life to take a 90 degree turn. Or as you put it, there can be these repeated exposures to different types of stressors, whether it's traumatic brain injury or sleep deprivation or otherwise. And in some respects, I mean, we tend to think about, I think, the mental illness in a very abstract way, insofar as it's like, oh, there's something wrong with our mind. And therefore, it is somehow less legitimate than like an Achilles tendon sprain. But the fact of the matter is the brain's an organ, it can be damaged very easily. Things like dehydration dramatically increase the likelihood of some type of sort of neuro anatomical injury.”

Former coach, a former professor, whoever it is, could be anyone. Family member you haven't talked to in a few years. And just reaching out to reconnect and say thanks for something or to tell them that you love them or whatever it might be has a real retethering effect that is really grounding. The fact of the matter is what we take to be normal right now in most modern industrialized countries, and I'm not saying there hasn't been a lot of good that has come from globalization and industrialization.

And I haven't had anything that I would characterize as a major depressive episode probably in the last four or five years.

“As one example, humans are weird creatures and we're not all rational actors, even though a lot of economists would love us to be rational robots doing our various things. It's often not the case. And humans, for instance, will work a lot harder to avoid losing $100 than they will to earn $100. And so you can, this is something I've done, which is pre-book. Group activities, whether that's like Dance class or a Brazilian Jesus class or fill in the blank, like some type of group activity, pay for it in advance so that you're going to feel like a schmuck and you're going to have that loss aversion. And you've just stacked the deck in such a way that makes it more likely you will not self-isolate and then you can create that structure if you don't have it plug and play ready to go if you don't have like five people around you.”

So kind of flagging that and realizing The world's not going to end if you need to take like three hours to go for a long walk or to what I will usually try to do is kind of work up.
