Ep 23: Why “Quick Fixes” Aren't Enough

We can hardly go on social media without seeing some sort of mental health quick-fix post. While these solutions may help with the acute symptoms and behaviors, they often fail to address the underlying problems. Join CA and Jaime as they explore how to move beyond the latest pop psychology viral video and dig deep during our healing journeys.

Notes:

• The problem with pop psychology
• Why treating the acute symptoms only may not work in the long run
• The importance of zooming out to get the complete picture of your mental health
• Why quick fixes can be good in the short term
• Why awareness behind our problematic behaviors is important
• How to move beyond fixing the bad habit
