I love that there's a name for something. It is necessary for things like that, and again, I think that the diagnoses that are in this book are valid to a certain degree and important to a certain degree, and it depends on whether or not we become the label.
Are mental health labels a double-edged sword? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Everybody Has Stuff', Rachel Annunziata dives into the complex world of mental health diagnoses. With her trademark candor, Rachel opens up about her own experiences with borderline personality disorder, discussing how these labels have shaped her identity for better and worse. She doesn't shy away from the tough questions: Do these labels help us understand ourselves, or do they box us in?
Rachel also touches on the significant role trauma plays in mental health and shares practical self-care tips, including the importance of good sleep and psychoeducation.

As a bonus, she gives a sneak peek into an upcoming episode featuring a guest speaker who will bring even more depth to these discussions.
