Pursuit of Happiness

What's up everyone! I am very excited to share with you a project that has been near and dear to me for a while now. In spite of traditional therapy I have decided to seek guidance from my peers and others in my pursuit of happiness. As someone who suffers with deep depression, anxiety, panic attacks, minor OCD and other odd phobias...this should get interesting! In the beginning the show was going to be 3 things. The first being a weed podcast. A way to explain and demonstrate cannabis methods of use, growth, and educational material for those new to the "soon to be" legal scene. It was then going to be a show about mental health and ways to cope along with methods of maintaining happiness. And finally it was going to be a podcast review show.... What we got was a show that picks the brains of interesting guests and how they personally deal with mental stress, depression, anxiety, etc. We try and keep it light but inevitably it can get dark. In the end we discuss our favorite podcasts and shout out those who provide us with hours of, FREE, entertainment. This episode I shoot the shit with my close friend "Frozen". We focus mainly on her father and her upbringing being a child born overseas, fleeing to Russian/Afghanistan and eventually moving to Canada just after 9/11. Her father, being a surgeon back home, now suffers from hardcore PTSD and Alcoholism. This leaves my young guest trying to figure out who she is and clings to "love" where ever she can get it. If your like me and suffer with mental illness then this show is for you. Watch me as I grow and shake away my anxiety, fear of being around people, trusting people, deep seeded depression, all with the help of YOU and my guests...and maybe a little extra medical help.
