Episode 2: Sharing Our Background Pt 1
Here Genni discusses her past with us, discussing her experiences from childhood to present. CW for mention of rape & abuse. Heavy topics for today. I’d give this episode a 18+ rating.

Why Am I Like This?
Episode 1 Description
Life-long friends Derek and Genni have a conversation about mental health. In this episode, they talk about the general premise of the podcast, what they hope to achieve, as well as a little bit about themselves and their journey in dealing with their own problems related to mental health. It’s a bit of a rocky ride (and we hope you can forgive Genni being a little quiet in parts, as we do not currently have an ideal recording setup), but we hope journey will be well-worth your time.
Most importantly, we both would like to remind anyone reading this and/or listening to this podcast that it is OK not to be OK.
Now, for some resources. This is by far not a comprehensive list and we encourage you to look up any relevant information for your local area if you do not see anything here that works for you.
