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...

What It's Like to be Manic | Bipolar Disorder
Angus Eye Tea: Anxiety, Depression, And Other Cheerful Topics
Bipolar has its ups and downs, and today we’re going to talk about the up: manic. I used to cherish my manic episodes. I wasn’t sure what happened, but it was a miracle that my severe depression had broken and I finally was able to get things done AND do them really well. I had energy! I could clean the whole house. I could get ahead on my projects and hell, start some new ones while I was at it. I was social, witty, funny. My brain was back in action. I drank coffee and it made everything feel even better, so I drank more and more. At some point, the fun ran out and all that was left was...

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.
