Dr. Margaret will focus today on questions and answers that listeners have sent her by either voicemail or email.

First topic for today: Is anorexia back "in" as beautiful? 

Second: Why could you be allowing your mom (with borderline traits) to occupy such emotional space in your life? 

And third: If I'm openly sad when my son is getting ready to leave home, am I unintentionally setting him up to feel guilty?

505 SelfWork: What's The Most Recent News For Depression Sufferers in 2026?

I&#39;m Dr. Margaret, a psychologist for over 30 years, TEDx speaker, and the author of Perfectly Hidden Depression. I created The SelfWork Podcast in 2016 to explain mental health treatment and to give you the chance to consider therapy without thinking it&#39;s weird or that it somehow suggests you can&#39;t fix your own problems. My team is very honored that nine years later, SelfWork has earned nearly 5 million downloads! Each episode features the popular listener question as well as interviews with outstanding guests, authors, and experts, adding to the wide diversity of topics listeners so appreciate. Regularly rated as one of the top mental health/depression podcasts out there (ranked as a top .5% internationally) I keep it short, casual, and focused on &#34;what you can do about it.&#34; I&#39;d love to hear from you. Please join me.
