Episode 54 - Mental Health Check-In: It's Not You, This is Hard

Monica DiCristina

Oct 30, 2020

Each month, Still Becoming brings you a Mental Health Check-In episode. These episodes are focused on mental health, emotional health, or personal growth, and involve a short teaching and a few take aways in around 15 to 20 minutes. The idea is to take a therapeutic topic or technique and expand it to help us in our everyday lives.⁣

⁣

This week we are talking all about the context we are living through in the United States. Even without knowing your specific circumstances - what you are living through right now is incredibly overwhelming. When we forget context, we often turn on and shame ourselves for struggling. ⁣

⁣

It's ok to be scared and overwhelmed. Now is not the time to judge or critique yourself. This is hard. That's the take away.⁣

⁣

I hope this episode is validating, and that you walk away with some helpful tips and increased self-compassion.

Still Becoming with Monica DiCristina

Still Becoming is a podcast about how it's never too late to become more free, more yourself, or try something new. We are all in the process of becoming more or less of something, of growing into ourselves. Informed by her own journey of struggling through anxiety to now working with others as a psychotherapist, Monica DiCristina interviews people about their stories of overcoming and becoming, or starting something new, as well as experts we can all learn from. We are not designed to stay the same, we are all still becoming.
