Listen "3.E3: unhealthy relationships"
Episode Synopsis
With our guest host Kavita, we discuss what unhealthy relationships are, how they impact our mental health, and what are some ways to navigate them. CW: examples given of unhealthy relationships.
I mentioned this on instagram but I also wanted to say it here: this episode was recorded in early 2020 and now that I’ve had time to think, I wanted to rectify one of the statements I made. I said I didn’t regret my unhealthy relationship because I learned a lot — that is false! Yes, I learned a lot of lessons and I also regret it immensely. If I could go back in time, I would’ve told myself to run at the first red flag. It definitely wreaked a bit of havoc on my nervous system and solidified some unhealthy beliefs about myself and about relationships. The time spent in lockdown has made me realize just how much I value healthy connections and making good memories. I wasted so much time in a situation that was not serving me when life is really too short to be doing that. If you were looking for a sign to leave an unhealthy situation, this is it!
