About On the Bright Side

Welcome to On the Bright Side - a safe place full of mental health convos, navigating your 20s tips, and doses of positivity & POVS… the unofficial girl’s guide to life if you will. This podcast is my way of sharing life experiences and perspectives with the world in hopes of making someone’s life a little brighter and a lot more fun. I started this podcast back in 2022 when I thought it was time to share my mental health story and since then it’s become so much more <3 What started as a mental health podcast transformed basically into everything that goes on behind a girl’s bedroom door - advice giving, tea talking and confidence boosting (and sometimes influencers, friends and other special guests join in on the convo). I am so glad you’re here <3 XO, Caroline Susko Follow @carolinesusko on Instagram and TikTok to get the latest updates on the podcast, as well as a glimpse into my life!

[…] And most importantly, you have a support system and there are answers. Because Googling, mental checking, asking for reassurance, asking questions repeatedly, those are all signs of OCD. And to some people, that just might be their everyday life and they might be thinking that's normal. It's OCD. At a young age, we are taught to find a solution to the problem. And if we have an OCD thought in our brain that, oh my gosh, there is going to be a fire in this house if I don't check for fire hazards, the solution is to go check for fire hazards so there is no fire. That's what we tell our brains. So then we start doing these routines and we get into these rituals of I need to check this and this and this and this and this and then I'll feel better and then I can go to bed. […]
