YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

I couldn't find another topic for Michaela Watkins, so I created one. Hope that's OK! I wanted to mention how much I related to her story relating to "love addiction." I've heard of that term and always felt it sounded so sensational and bad self-help booky, but I totally get it now. No wonder I had such terrible "DTs" when a guy wouldn't call me, and then how the DTs would disappear the instant I got a "fix" (a phone call from the guy). Ugh! I might as well has been in a seedy alley begging for drugs. Wow, who knew I'd have such an epiphany listening to this podcast when I've had an embarrassing number of years of therapy. Sigh...

Love the podcast and appreciate that the guests are so open and honest. Paul, you are awesome. Thanks for doing this.

Hello, jeesau, welcome to the forum. Yeah, the podcasts raise a lot of "epiphanies", although lately, I have been a bit too burned out by my own struggle.

Please stick around, all kinds of awesome people. All the best, take care.

Thanks, manuel_moe_g. I appreciate that. Hang in there with your stuff.
