1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Topity Gang. Welcome to Unbreakable, a mental health podcast with 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: Jay Glaser. And before I get into today's mental health 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: check in, I feel like many people. You may be 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: surprised to learn that one in five adults in this 5 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: country experience mental illness. Last year get far too many 6 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 1: failed to receive the support they need. Carolm. Behavioral health 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: is doing something about it. They understand that behavioral health 8 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: is a key part of whole health, delivering compassionate care 9 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: that treats physical, mental, emotional, and social needs in tandem. 10 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: Carolin behavioral health raising the quality of life through empathy 11 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: and action. So today's mental health check in. I know 12 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: I've been in the blue quite a bit lately, but 13 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: today is a great day. And it's a great day 14 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: for just a couple of things that have happened. And look, 15 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: I know, bad things, they're lousy. Things happen to us 16 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 1: every day in life. It's how we deal with them. 17 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: And for me, sometimes when really good things happen and 18 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: then bad things follow up, I tend to think, well, man, 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: my life, I can't just let good things happen for me. 20 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: Bad things you're automatically going to come and not to 21 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: help your way of thinking. It's also not true, but 22 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: when you tend to start drifting your mind that way, 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: it starts to feel true. So what I did today 24 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: is that I immediately got on the phone with my 25 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: therapist because I knew I was going down this bad 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: rabbit hole and letting old negative patterns start to get 27 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: to the forefront of my mind. So again, I'm going 28 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: to constantly fight to get myself back in the blue today. 29 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: But you know, I called Mike again. I call her 30 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: therapist coaches. So I called my coach and spent a 31 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: good hour trying to get myself out of this negative 32 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: way of thinking, out of this little loophole that I 33 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,839 Speaker 1: end up getting, this loop that I end up getting 34 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: stuck in way too often. So in the past it 35 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: probably would have taken over a lot stronger, a lot more. 36 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: But now, because I know how to lean into these 37 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: tools better, I'm able to fight back against the gray 38 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: a lot more and get myself in the blue when 39 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: I guarantee I will be back in the blue here 40 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: and the next day or two. But we gotta keep 41 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: walking this walk together and fighting this fight together.
