In this episode: the difference between postpartum depression (10–15% of mothers) and postpartum psychosis (0.1–2%), and why conflating them sends the wrong message. Why victimhood has become the highest coin of the realm — and how identifying as a victim robs you of agency, humanity, and any chance of victory. A therapist's blunt admission that her own profession is manufacturing "little Luigi monsters" by telling patients nothing is ever their fault. The self-care industrial complex, girl-boss culture, and why the ancient remedies (go outside, walk, sit in the sun, talk to a friend, go to church) still work better. Plus: the terrible advice one doctor gave about anxiety, what alcohol actually does to sleep and serotonin, sleep-drug hallucinations, and how we became a pill-popping culture that never learns to sit with its emotions.

One person strangled those three children. You can explain aspects of a tragedy without excusing any of it — and the internet still can't hold both of those thoughts at once.
