My Therapist Hates You is a weekly podcast where two long-distance best friends unpack their biggest breakthroughs, worst dating disasters, and most questionable life choices—with humor, heart, and a little bit of chaos. Hosted by Carly and Hannah, this show is for anyone navigating modern mental health, queer identity, and the emotional hangover of being a millennial woman in late-stage capitalism. If you’ve ever overanalyzed a text with your therapist, cried in a bar bathroom, or said “I’m working on it” while making it worse—this show is for you.

In the season one finale of My Therapist Hates You, we get radically honest about what it’s meant to launch a queer millennial mental health podcast filled with unfiltered stories, dating chaos, trauma recovery, and laughter. We reflect on the top listener-favorite episodes—from coming out late in life and car nostalgia to Philly pride, gatekeeping in queer spaces, narcissistic trauma bonds, and emotionally mangled dating attempts.

This behind-the-scenes episode covers:

• The unexpected impact of going public with our lives

• Listener feedback that moved us to tears (and DMs from butch dykes)

• Why we shelved early episodes and how Riverside ruined our jokes

• Unscripted friendship dynamics, healing through storytelling, and learning to talk on mic

• What’s next for season two (age-gap relationships, millennial flaking, guest moms, and bisexual bumper stickers)

What does it mean to date while autistic or live with ADHD in a relationship? In part 2 of 2 of our neurodivergence series, we unpack the emotional highs and hidden costs of loving—and being loved—with a neurodivergent brain. We talk about being miscast as the Manic Pixie Dream Girl, “coming out” as autistic on dates, sensory accommodations that show real care, and why neurodivergent folks are more vulnerable to abusive dynamics. We also share how routines aren’t rigidity, how ADHD forgetfulness isn’t disrespect, and what it looks like when someone truly gets your brain.

Daily Life, Misconceptions & Neurodivergent Strengths (Part 1)

In this episode Carly and Hannah unpack what it’s really like living with neurodivergent diagnoses. This is not your average clinical breakdown—this is lived experience. From sensory overload and executive dysfunction to math trauma, workplace masking, and the financial cost of being neurodivergent, they break down the myths, the strengths, and the stigmas with radical honesty and wit.

You’ll hear:

• ​The truth about late autism diagnoses in women
• ​ADHD myths, rejection sensitivity, and emotional dysregulation
• ​How remote work made one host finally feel included
• ​The problem with Love on the Spectrum and "Autism Moms"
• ​Why “rigidity” is often just self-regulation
• ​The real costs of neurodivergent life—from meds to mattresses

Perfect for anyone curious about ADHD, autism, AuDHD, or just trying to understand how neurodivergent people actually move through the world.

Part 2 will dive into dating, relationships, and identity.

You’ll hear stories of escaping abusive homes, surviving toxic jobs (welding, dental assisting), and hitting emotional rock bottom with nothing but food bank oatmeal and a perfectly timed anthem. Featuring shout-outs to Bia, Belle & Sebastian, Trace Adkins, and yes, Free People bralettes, this is the memoir-core mixtape you didn’t know you needed.

Stick around for a chaotic lightning round of songs that broke us, saved us, and scored our sex lives. Plus: ska hot takes, zine announcements, and a promise of curated playlists on Patreon.

This week, we’re sharing a special preview from our guest appearance on Dating Yapps, hosted by the wonderful and wise Alex Daly. We joined the show to talk about how My Therapist Hates You came to life, our 20-year friendship, and what it’s like navigating the queer dating world — especially when you’re new to the community.

We also unpack the messy reality of love-bombing, the therapy breakthroughs that made us start podcasting, and why it’s sometimes easier to bare your soul to strangers on the internet than to people you actually know.

In this raw and resonant episode, Carly and Hannah unpack the fraught realities of lesbian gatekeeping—especially toward late-in-life baby gays. Carly shares her powerful story of coming out in her 30s and the harm caused by exclusionary attitudes within the queer community, including an abusive relationship that fed on internalized shame. Together, they explore how gatekeeping intersects with trauma, disability, and the pressure to “prove” queerness. Plus, they close with some much-needed levity: lesbian fashion smash or pass. This episode is part memoir, part manifesto, and all heart. Listener discretion advised for themes of abuse, self-harm and sexual assault.

This episode reflects my personal experiences and emotional truth. No names, identifying details, or professions are shared.

It is not intended to harm, accuse, or target any individual — but to process and speak openly about my own journey.

Any resemblance to actual persons is purely coincidental.

I believe in the right to share lived experiences without shame or censorship, and this episode is part of that process.

In this episode of My Therapist Hates You, Carly and Hannah take a hilarious, and occasionally heartbreaking drive down memory lane to explore the cars that shaped their lives. From childhood backseats to busted high school beaters, they unpack how car ownership—or the lack of it—impacted their freedom, identity, and safety.

They reflect on family car insecurity, the stigma of driving unreliable vehicles, and the shame or pride attached to certain cars. They open up about "freedom cars"—the vehicles that helped them escape toxic relationships or unsafe environments—and what those moments taught them about autonomy, class, and survival.

If you’ve ever named your car, slept in your car, or coasted on empty for too long—this episode is for you.

In this episode of My Therapist Hates You, Carly and Hannah swap stories about ghosting therapists, trusting your gut, and knowing when it’s time to move on from a mismatched clinical relationship. From culture clashes and therapists who overshare to one unforgettable blind shrink who fixated on outlaw biker boyfriends, we unpack what makes therapy work—and what makes it not. We also talk red flags, identity alignment, and why you don’t owe your therapist closure.

Topics include:• Red flags in a new therapist• Outgrowing a therapeutic relationship• Cultural compatibility and identity in therapy• Ghosting your therapist (and why it’s okay)• Therapist oversharing, boundary issues, and missed cues

If you’ve ever felt weird after a session, or wondered if your therapist is actually helping, this one’s for you.
