Overdramatic and Problematic

Ever feel like your brain is constantly buzzing, even when you're trying to rest? You're not alone. Feeling overwhelmed is normalised yet misunderstood, especially for teenagers balancing school pressures, social expectations, and the awkward territory between childhood and adulthood. We explore how small stressors accumulate into mental breakdowns and share personal strategies for coping.

If you're feeling overwhelmed and alone, please reach out to us through Instagram, TikTok, or email - we genuinely want to listen and support you.

We dive deep into some wild story times and answer listener questions about dating, jealousy, and dealing with people who take things way too far. These stories range from getting a crush's boyfriend expelled to an ex-boyfriend and his mother breaking into a house after a breakup.

Have you ever wondered why the standard advice for handling bullying rarely works?

If you're experiencing bullying, please reach out to Dolly's Dream or another trusted helpline. You deserve support, and you're not alone.
