Episode 30.5: Memory, Interrupted (The Bonus Episode Where Michelle Talks About The Memory Loss Caused By Depression and Trauma)


Listen Later

You ever look back on the worst months of your life and realize they’re basically… missing? Like your brain just rage-quit mid-season and refused to film the episodes? That’s the thing about deep depression and trauma—they can turn your memory into a drunk intern who lost the filing cabinet, shredded half the files, and then went on vacation. Whole days vanish, conversations get replaced with static, and time turns into one long, blurry ‘previously on’ montage.

Today, we’re talking about why your brain sometimes acts like a shady narrator in your own life story—and why that missing footage isn’t you being broken, it’s your mind trying to keep you alive.
