<p>This week’s episode is for anyone who’s ever said, <em>“I 100% support meds for mental health,”</em> while simultaneously whispering <em>“...but like not for me, obviously.”</em></p><p>Yep. That’s been me.The supportive friend. The advocate. The one who’ll help <em>you</em> find a psychiatrist and talk through your dosage, while quietly raw-dogging my own anxiety and insomnia for years because <em>I’m fine.</em> (Spoiler: I was not fine.)</p><p>In this one, I’m opening up about what finally pushed me to try SSRIs, how the first few weeks on Lexapro are going (side eyes + soft optimism), and the weird guilt spiral that comes from needing the exact thing you’ve always told everyone else is totally valid.</p><p>We’re talking:</p><li><p>🤸‍♀️The mental gymnastics of “I support meds, but…”</p></li><li><p>😔 Internalized shame (even when you “know better”)</p></li><li><p>⚖️ What’s shifted since starting</p></li><li><p>⏰ Why it took me this long (hi, perfectionism and people-pleasing)</p></li><p>It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s for anyone who’s been silently struggling but also too stubborn to accept help. We’re unpacking it together, one slightly-medicated step at a time.</p><p><br></p><p>LINKS</p><p>💌 Share your story or question: <a href="www.nobodyknowspodcast.ca">⁠nobodyknowspodcast.ca⁠</a></p><p>🤍 Leave a review or share with a friend (it helps a lot)</p><p>💭 Follow along on IG &amp; TikTok: @jdallyy</p>
