Dating can be hard enough as it is. But when you also live with mental health struggles, it can bring added layers of complexity to an already tricky landscape. Whether it’s anxiety convincing you that you’re unlovable, depression sapping your energy to put yourself out there, or the stigma surrounding disorders keeping you guarded...how do you brave the dating world when your own mind puts up obstacles?

In this episode, we’ll hear from folks who have been there. Like many, they once saw their mental health status as a liability in finding love, but they’ve since learned how to approach dating in a healthy, empowering way. We’ll talk openness versus oversharing, setting boundaries, self-compassion, tuning into your needs, and other tips. While there are certainly challenges, you absolutely can date successfully while also prioritizing your mental wellbeing.

It’s about finding the balance between accepting your needs and believing you deserve fulfilment. There will be trial and error, but through communication, self-awareness, and showing yourself grace, dating can teach you invaluable lessons about resilience. You are SO much more than your diagnosis or struggles.
