About this episode

October 8, 2015: Joel talks with Amanda Rosenberg. She's a comedy writer, and she reminds us how healing it is to laugh. (Yay suicide humor!) She also talks about feeling numb, being falsely diagnosed, wanting friends to just listen, and drawing pictures of the staff while in Stanford psychiatric hospital.

We mention a few articles Amanda wrote for Medium. Here's one of them: http://bit.ly/AR_Medium

It's also Mental Health Awareness Week. Though shouldn't that be every week?
