In this episode we talk about the ins and outs about sensory overload...then we go on a little tangent. I forgot to mention this video in the episode but I feel it is a great representation of sensory overload: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2P4Ed6G3gw Eric and I referenced another great podcast and one of it's episodes so I wanted to post it for you to listen to. How I Built This Lab With Guy Raz, guest Andy Dunn https://wondery.com/shows/how-i-built-this/episode/10386-hibt-lab-burn-rate-andy-dunn/

The time doing this podcast so far has been the most rewarding and yet the most challenging in some time. While digging deeper into the world of mental illness, little did I know that I'd be digging deeper into myself. -As I promised I said I would note some of the instagram accounts I follow that have helped me. The top two are: asafeplaceinsideyourhead and realdepressionproject I also enjoy folowing #spoonieproblems

I tend to talk about how those with a mental illness don't have the same amount of hours in the day or our hours don't have as great of quality. This would make many of us spoonies. This week we talk about what the spoon theory is and how it applies to those with chronic illnesses.

In this episode we are turning the tables and asking Eric all of the questions. What is it like to date, be married to and live with a mentally ill person? Have I driven him nuts yet or do we have years of bliss in our future?

As promised, here are my favorite episodes from Fox Cities Murder and Mayhem and Milwaukee Mafia (lucky for you, I couldn't pick just one mayhem so you get two!) Ozzy Osbourne wasn't the first to experience a "shot in the dark." Green Bay's Orson Avery found himself on the receiving end of a burglary gang and wasn't about to let his migraines stop him from fighting back.

As promised, here are my favorite episodes from Fox Cities Murder and Mayhem and Milwaukee Mafia! Frequent mob target John Sullivan, more commonly known as “Blackie”, and later “Blackie the Sieve”. He earned the nickname due to how many times he's been shot, and survived.

As promised, here are my favorite episodes from Fox Cities Murder and Mayhem and Milwaukee Mafia (lucky for you, I couldn't pick just one mayhem so you get two!) Frank Frye was a retired police officer and motel night watchman. One night, he is not only killed but brought several miles away and dumped. Who wanted Frank dead and why?

On this episode we interview special guest, author and podcaster, Gavin Schmitt. Gavin will talk about his podcasts that he co-hosts with Eric but he will also open up about his history with Anxiety.

Over roughly three months I experienced some of the darkest times I'd ever had and I didn't have my psychiatrist to lean on and very little medicine on hand so I had to find alternative anxiety busters.

In this episode we reflect back on what I needed to concentrate on most mentally during our travels and how that can translate into our needs in every day life. Perhaps we could all slow down and enjoy what's around us a little more.
