Summary

Have you ever gotten so used to struggling that you forgot to ask whether things actually have to feel this hard? Same. This week I’m joined by Alicia McCarvell and we talk about ADHD, medication, grief for the years you spent coping, changing your relationship with alcohol, internet criticism, building a life online, and realizing there’s actually no prize for suffering.
