Solo Episode: How a psychic led me to ba...

Anna Kai
About this episode

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American biddies and this Thanksgiving, I'm grateful for the psychic that made me realize that I needed to go back on Zoloft. This week, I'm discussing all things antidepressants, medication, and why a bad reading from a psychic led me to get back onto a good path with my mental health. I answer your questions about how to disentangle your life from a long-term partner and how to get over your first love when it feels like you'll never be loved again and, how to handle Thanksgiving when you have nothing to be grateful for.
