Erin’s Therapy Room

你有沒有想過，自己在家中的「排行順位」，可能從小就默默影響著你的個性、情緒，甚至長大後與別人相處的方式？

為什麼老大好像總是比較有責任感？老么比較容易被照顧？夾在中間的孩子，又會不會發展出自己的生存之道？但這些說法真的有根據，還是只是我們對手足排行的刻板印象？

這一集邀請職能治療師 Lin Lin，和 語言治療師 Erin 一起從原生家庭聊到手足關係，分享不同排行的成長經驗，以及家庭角色可能如何影響一個人看待自己、與家人互動，甚至進入成年後的人際關係。

也許我們無法選擇自己出生在第幾順位，但長大後，可以重新理解那些曾經被安排好的角色。

一起來看看，你在家裡是老大、老二、老么，還是獨生子女？又有哪些「排行痕跡」，一路跟著你長大？

這集，是我和好友 Jessica 在某天凌晨，窩在棉被裡、用懶洋洋的姿勢錄下的深夜對話。
我們聊起去年在南美洲的那段流浪時光——那些日子，說遠不遠，說近也很不近。

那不是什麼光鮮亮麗的度假行程，而是一段用雙腳走出來、用疲憊換來的冒險之路。
那幾天，我們住不到飯店，手機快沒電，肚子餓到發抖，但笑聲始終沒斷過。

我們在荒郊野外找廁所、面對飯店訂單被取消、高山症爆發、10小時以上的夜車、租車車子發不動，還曾經五天沒洗澡……友情就在這種「活下去的日常」中，變得格外真實。

我們從觀光客變成半個「原住民」，也學會用幽默感包住焦慮，用彼此的聲音安定混亂的心情。這一集，是一段沒有濾鏡的夜聊，是關於旅程、關於友情，也關於我們怎麼在遠方找到回家的感覺。

Okay, so picture this: it’s the middle of the night, me and my bestie Jessica are wrapped up in blankets, lying around half-asleep, and just… talking.

We started reminiscing about our time backpacking through South America last year.
It feels like it was forever ago, but also like it just happened yesterday.

It wasn’t one of those picture-perfect vacations. It was messy, exhausting, and honestly? One of the best things we’ve ever done.

There were days we couldn’t book a hotel, our phones were dying, we were starving—like, shaking-hungry—but somehow, we kept laughing.

We went through a lot: searching for toilets in the middle of nowhere, getting our bookings canceled, altitude sickness hitting us hard, night buses that felt like forever, cars that wouldn’t start, and yes… we didn’t shower for five days straight (don’t judge).

And weirdly, that’s where our friendship got really real—when it was just about getting through the day together.

We started out as clueless tourists, and ended up kind of like local wildlings.
We learned to cover anxiety with jokes, and use each other’s voices to calm the chaos around us.

我很喜歡一句話：「愛是世界上最大的資源。」

或許我們的時間有限，精力有限，但愛本身，並非會因分享而減少的東西。

想讓匱乏感消失，我們必須先著重在與自己的關係裡。

所以這一集，想和大家分享幾個我平常讓自己慢下來的方法，每當焦慮或緊繃的時候，它們都默默陪著我，也希望能陪伴正在努力生活的你/妳。
