Episode 18: SSRIs Are Not the Enemy
Have antidepressants really been causing violence? Are SSRIs harder to quit than heroin? Or are fear and misinformation drowning out the science? In this episode of Dead Inside & Board Certified, we take a deep dive into the headlines surrounding SSRIs and the recent public claims that have left many patients questioning their treatment. Rather than defending pharmaceutical companies, or dismissing legitimate concerns, we examine what the evidence actually says. We discuss: What SSRIs are and how they work Why antidepressant use has increased over the years Whether SSRIs are being overprescribed The truth about addiction versus withdrawal What the research says about violence and mass shootings Where criticism of psychiatry is validâand where it goes too far Why informed consent, therapy, and individualized care matter If you've found yourself wondering whether your medication is helping you, hurting you, or if you've been misled by sensational headlines, this episode is for you.

Episode 17: Transition Isn't Just One Person's Story
What happens when the person you love tells you they are transgender and want to transition? In this episode of Dead Inside & Board Certified, we sit down with a woman whose partner came out as wanting to transition during their relationship. Together, we explore the complex emotions that can arise for partners navigating this life-changing experience, including grief, confusion, love, guilt, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the pressure to support someone while trying to understand your own feelings. This conversation is firmly rooted in affirming transgender identities and the importance of living authentically. At the same time, we discuss a perspective that is often overlooked: the mental health needs of the partner. Too often, partners feel they must suppress their own emotions out of fear of being judged, misunderstood, or perceived as unsupportive. This episode is not about choosing sides. It's about recognizing that multiple truths can exist at once: a transgender person deserves affirmation and support, and their partner deserves space to process their own emotional journey. Because supporting one person's authenticity should never require another person to suffer in silence. Content Warning: Discussion of relationship loss, grief, identity changes, anxiety, depression, and emotional distress related to major life transitions.

Episode 16: Why Pride Matters
Happy Pride Month. In this episode of Dead Inside & Board Certified, Morgan sits down with the owner of FemmeCare for an honest conversation about Pride, mental health, healthcare, and the importance of creating spaces where people feel safe to be themselves. Too often, conversations about LGBTQ+ issues become reduced to politics, headlines, and social media debates. But behind those conversations are real people navigating relationships, family dynamics, healthcare systems, identity, and mental wellness. Together, we explore why Pride still matters, the unique mental health challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, and how stigma, rejection, discrimination, and minority stress can impact emotional well-being. We also discuss what affirming healthcare actually looks like, common mistakes providers make, and practical ways clinicians can create safer, more welcoming environments for their patients. Most importantly, this episode isn't just about struggle. It's about resilience, community, authenticity, chosen family, hope, and the joy that comes from living openly and being seen. Whether you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, love someone who is, work in healthcare, or simply want to better understand experiences different from your own, this conversation offers insight, compassion, and perspective. Because mental health belongs to everyone. Content Note: Discussion includes mental health challenges, discrimination, family rejection, religious trauma, and healthcare barriers experienced by LGBTQ+ individuals.
