Today, we're covering bullying, both online and in-person, and its devastating impact on mental health, including passive-aggressive conflicts.

Covering this topic with me is Justine Rodes, host of the Mentally A Badass podcast. Together, we delve into personal experiences with bullying, self-worth struggles, and the long-term psychological effects of childhood torment. To do so, Justine opens up about her own history of being bullied, how it shaped her self-perception, and how those experiences led her to become a mental health advocate and content creator.

The discussion highlights the power of words and how bullying engrains negative self-beliefs that can persist well into adulthood. Justine shares how bullying at school and emotional neglect at home deeply affected her mental health, leading to self-harm and suicidal ideation. She explains how therapy, self-awareness, and advocacy helped her rewire her thinking and reclaim her confidence. The conversation also explores the complex relationship between trauma and identity, emphasizing that healing is a journey rather than a destination.

Additionally, Justine also discusses her transition from aspiring therapist to social media advocate, using platforms like Instagram and podcasting to create a supportive mental health community. She also shares insights on toxic roommate experiences, cyberbullying, and the subtle but damaging effects of passive-aggressive behavior.
