We’re back with a follow-up to the “no inner monologue” chaos, but this time, we’re going deeper. Kristin and I unpack what it actually feels like when your brain disconnects, how trauma can flip your reality switch, and why dissociation might just be your mind’s weirdest defense mechanism.

Then we shift gears into something truly wild: the microscopic villains that can give you cancer. Yep, your high school biology class never warned you about this lineup of viruses, parasites, and bacteria with major overachiever energy. And of course, we can’t resist taking a detour into herpes (because why not?) and what it’s like to realize your body might be hosting more guests than you invited.

Takeaways:

  1. Mind on Autopilot – How dissociation protects you when reality’s too much to handle.

  2. Microbe Madness – The shocking list of infections that can cause cancer.

  3. Parasites with a Dark Side – Some don’t just invade… they rewrite your cells.

  4. Herpes Facts You Didn’t Ask For – But can’t stop thinking about.

  5. Survival Mode Explained – Why your brain sometimes hits the eject button.
