This week we’re baring it all in an attempt to keep being honest on this stupid show. Topics include:
- Why we’re tired of being strong for the holidays (and in general)
- Ways we’ve been struggling and why talking about it is hard
- Mental roadblocks preventing you from seeking support
- Turning to substances and self-harm instead of being vulnerable
- Putting on a shell to protect yourself from being disappointed
- Being vulnerable at the wrong place or time
- Spilling your guts online vs IRL
- Drifting away from friends and blaming yourself
- Ways vulnerability has helped—and hurt—us
- Things you can do to make vulnerability more accessible
As we wrap up another year of Pickles and Vodka, we want to thank you for taking a chance and being vulnerable with us. Y’all keep us sane. (Or at least sane-ish.)
