Throughout our lives, we have found different ways to process the world. Some of us smile through the pain while others will isolate themselves until the pain passes. These defense mechanisms have served us in more ways than one, but moving forward and processing our emotions can be a lot of difficult change and growth. It's up to us to find our own path to being our best selves.

Abbie and Antonio talk about different defense mechanisms, their past trauma, the background of mental diagnoses, medication, talk therapy, and self-talk.
