Shit We Don't Tell Mom
2. Meet Kristy at Emotional Baggage Claim
Show Notes

Kristy shares the detailed story of when she was institutionalized and put in the psych ward in a Children's Hospital at age 12. We explore how well-meaning adults can significantly change the course of someone's childhood and how the approach to mental health care has changed since 2002. Content warning: violence.

Highlights

  • Defining "Emotional Baggage"  
  • Being bullied and being the bully  
  • Acting out from childhood emotional neglect  

Takeaway: 

  • Everyone has a vulnerable story 
  • Making assumptions serves no one. You never know what is beyond the surface level 
  • Talking out loud about your traumatic experiences helps you process it for yourself
