Manage episode 467041982 series 3558825
On episode 230, we welcome Michelle Sherman to discuss mental illness within families, the missteps people make in attempting to address it, our tendency to personalize others’ struggles, what happens when others aren’t aware of why they’re struggling and can’t explain it, the 4Cs model of navigating mental illness in others, the effects and trauma and neglect, asking for support and overcoming the shame of doing so, and why having a mental illness doesn’t necessarily mean one is incapable of being a good parent.
