Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Hey, Heifer! Today, I’m going to tell you how my May went, talk a bit about June, but overall I’m going to casually mention that I’m, um, taking a break from Angus Eye Tea until August :). You know me, so good at taking breaks. Letting go of that perfectionist tendency ha ha ha. Seriously though, I’m excited to rest and come back better than ever! I’ll be active on my Patreon at where you can hop in for $2! Until then, have a lovely Gemini season and best of luck with that Mercury in retrograde crap.

The (Almost) End of Quarantine Whiplash
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Heyyyyy Heifer! Quarantine seems to be slowly ending and it’s been weirder than I thought it would be. Like, I knew I’d be socially rusty and would have to remember how to order food, etc. But I wasn’t expecting to have weird depression, or that my brain would short circuit and make it feel like things had always stayed open and that the last 1.5 years didn’t happen. So I figured I’d talk about that whiplash today! Enjoy this episode and get vaccinated! Moo, Elaine TIMESTAMPS 00:00 No masks, no problems? LOL. 01:23 The transition from 1.5 years of quarantine to pre-COVID routines is...

I'm Tired of Not Sleeping: Fatigue and Depression
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Hey, Heifer. It’s 1:00 a.m oops. I’m hanging out with my friends and I’m tired which is ironic because this episode is about striving for a healthier sleep routine. But here we are. Mmm. I can’t tell you how hard it is to write this little paragraph that no one reads after midnight. What’s the point? Who am I? Why don’t I call pancakes flap jacks? Flap jacks sounds way cooler. I’m hungry and I want pancakes. Shit, FLAP JACKS. Okay, I’m off to bed lolol jk I’m still listening to the episode and doing timestamps. This hell will never end. Moo, Elaine Want additional...

Want additional content including a secret blog? Check out my Patreon at ! Hey, Heifer! I recently cut caffeine out of my life so I could manage my anxiety and I realized it can be a little daunting to embark on such a journey. What drinks secretly have caffeine?

Also, you can be anxious and enjoy your three cups of coffee a day. You can enjoy whatever level of caffeine works for you! We’re all built...

May Goals: A Write of Passage
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Want additional content including a secret blog? Check out my Patreon at ! Hey, Heifer! New month, new goals! I genuinely had no idea May had started. I think I've been living in a perpetual March.

And then, of course, I have a car related goal. Are we surprised? My April wasn't great but also every month has its ups and downs. I hope your May is looking bright and beautiful!

Over Pressured, Underwhelmed: The Burdens We Place on Ourselves
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Hey, Heifer! I’ve been struggling lately. I’m in a depressive episode and on top of that I’ve been agonizing over my future. Like, truly agonizing. I’m pretty sure I’m losing sleep over it. And the main reason why is that I have put so much pressure on myself to figure it all out right now. Or soon. Or really ever. And it feels like I’ll never figure it out, which means I’m afraid to move forward, which means I’m beating myself up for not moving forward, I get paralyzed, etc. etc. etc. Today is a think-out-loud episode about why I do this to myself and ways I can try to...

Want additional content including a secret blog and videos? Check out my Patreon at ! Hey, Heifer! Once upon a time, I was a Girl Scout. As such, it was my duty to sell Girl Scout cookies. Selling did not come naturally to me yet every year I would drag my dad with me around the neighborhood trying to sell enough cookies to win whatever prize the head organization was offering. Later, I wrote a personal essay about the experience and today I am doing a dramatic reading of it!

Depression Loopholes: Life Hacks for Depressive Episodes
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Want additional content including a secret blog and videos? Check out my Patreon at ! Hey, Heifer! I’m depressed! I know, such a shocker. Me? Depressed? I never talk about mental health. Ha. Ha ha. Ha ha ha. Anyway, over the years I’ve come to learn that I’m not very nice to myself when I’m depressed. If I accomplish anything less than 100 percent, I consider myself a failure. Can’t vacuum the entire house? May as well not bother. Can’t clean the kitchen? No point in trying. But that is where my life hacks come in! Procrastination really helped me discover these depression...

Do You Lack Adventure in Your Life?
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Hey, Heifer! Do you ever have one of those weekends where you can’t tell if you’re embarking on some healthy self-reflection or if you’re falling into a pit of depression? I had a weekend like that recently. It feels like everything is up in the air right now and it’s both exhilarating and burdensome. I came across a YouTube channel called and they do all these exciting adventures. I couldn’t help looking at my own life and thinking, “Wow. I’m boring.” In this episode, I think out loud about what “adventure” truly means, what I have or am lacking in that department, and...

info_outlineHey, Heifers! Welcome to the podcast about anxiety, depression, and other cheerful topics.
I attended my first ever conference last weekend for PODCASTING. It was such a blast, and I had so many thoughts and emotions that I had to record it.
Which I did. And then the file corrupted.
So, I recorded again. Sigh.
