1 in 5 women.

And somehow, long before we learned that statistic, we learned the girl code.

Keep your keys between your fingers in the parking lot.
Don’t walk home alone.
Don’t go jogging.
Cover your drink.
And don’t drink too much.
Share your location.
Don’t wear that.
Don’t talk about sexuality.
Don’t be too nice.
But don’t be too rude, either.
Because rejecting him might make him angry.

Passed from woman to girl, generation after generation, as casually as any other life advice.

And then we wonder why women are disproportionately anxious, hypervigilant and afraid.

Maybe women aren’t crazy.

Maybe our nervous systems know exactly what the f**k is going on.

Anyway, in the words of Dennis Reynolds:

“I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds.”

Reasons to follow me.
Also, conveniently, reasons to unfollow me. 🌿

Around here:

Natural ≠ inherently better.
Toxic positivity can f**k all the way off.
Psychiatric medication is healthcare, not a failing.
And if your brain does some bizarre little thing that makes you wonder, “Is this just me?”…

I probably know why it does that. 🧠

Mental health is complicated. Humans are complicated. And I’m deeply uninterested in pretending either can be reduced to “good vibes,” supplements, or a cute infographic telling you to regulate your nervous system.

Come for the neuroscience. Stay for the nuance and profanity.

Or unfollow me.

That’s an excellent form of boundary setting. 😂

Your brain is an absolutely incredible piece of biological machinery.

It is also deeply committed to jumping to conclusions. 🧠✨

It can retrieve memories that match your current mood, learn to fear something that was never actually dangerous, reinforce anxiety every time you avoid it, edit memories while you’re remembering them, and interpret “I feel this” as “therefore, this is objectively true.”

All while you’re just trying to buy groceries.

And this is exactly why understanding how our minds work matters.

Because once you know that a thought, feeling, memory, or alarm signal isn’t necessarily an objective report from Reality Headquarters™, you get a little space to ask:

“Is this true… or is my brain doing a brain thing?”

Sometimes it’s wisdom.

Sometimes it’s conditioning.

Sometimes it’s confirmation bias.

And sometimes it’s three raccoons in a trench coat operating a nervous system.

Dale Carnegie wrote How to Stop Worrying and Start Living in 1948, and honestly? A shocking amount of it holds up.

Does it also contain a little casual 1940s misogyny and advice about treating ulcers with milk?

Absolutely.

We take what we need and leave the rest in 1948. 🤣

But his idea of “day-tight compartments” is one I genuinely love.

Your brain does not need to process yesterday, survive today, AND troubleshoot every conceivable version of tomorrow simultaneously.

Sometimes the most useful question is simply:

What actually belongs in today?

The past already happened.
The future is not currently accepting appointments.
Today has enough s**t going on.

Close the compartments. 🚢🧠

I understand why this case is being celebrated as a win for maternal mental health.

I just don’t think it is.

Because somewhere, a new mother is having a horrifying, unwanted thought about harming her baby and wondering, What if this means I’m capable of doing it?

Somewhere else, a woman who desperately needs psychiatric treatment is reading that Lindsay Clancy was “overmedicated,” “put on 13 medications,” and “begged for help while doctors just threw pills at her.”

And she’s getting a little more afraid of medication.

That’s what worries me.

The Lindsay Clancy case involves profound mental illness, complicated treatment, changing diagnoses, medication starts and stops, retrospective reports, competing expert interpretations, and now enormous legal stakes.

That complexity has been flattened into a very compelling story:

She asked for help. Psychiatry failed her. Medication made her worse.

But a compelling story is not necessarily an accurate one.

And when we’re talking about maternal mental health, accuracy matters.

Unwanted, ego-dystonic intrusive thoughts about harming your baby can be terrifying. They do not mean you want to hurt your child or that you will.

Psychiatric medications aren’t evidence that your provider isn’t listening to you. Sometimes medication is the help.

Lindsay was suffering from profound mental illness while struggling with fear and ambivalence about medication. It was a common story.

Somehow, the story being told about her case will probably leave other mothers more afraid to seek the very treatment that could help them.

That’s not the mental health victory I want.

“Do your own research.”

Actually? Yes. Please do.

But somewhere along the way, “do your own research” started meaning:

Google it until you find something that confirms what you already wanted to believe.

That is not research.

Research is checking the original source. Looking at the quality of the evidence. Asking whether one study has been replicated. Looking at what the larger body of evidence says.

And if your afternoon of Googling leads you to a conclusion that contradicts the consensus of major medical and scientific organizations, that doesn’t automatically mean you’ve uncovered something they all missed.

It might mean you should ask why your sources are telling a dramatically different story.

Question authority? Absolutely.

Science should withstand scrutiny.

But skepticism means applying scrutiny to all claims, including the ones you really, really want to be true.

Otherwise, we’re not doing our own research.

We’re just looking for Internet Marilyn Manson Kid to tell us we were right.

✨ COMING OCTOBER 1: HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY AT WYLDE COLLECTIVE ✨

Because apparently “you’re a woman, hormones are weird, good luck out there” was the treatment plan for a little too long. 🙃

Women have spent decades being told that exhaustion, brain fog, mood changes, sleep disruption, changes in libido, and generally feeling like an unfamiliar person inhabiting their body are things we should simply… ✨deal with✨.

Respectfully, no. 💅

Starting October 1, Wylde Collective will be offering comprehensive hormone evaluations and HRT when clinically appropriate, with the same approach I bring to mental health care: evidence-based, individualized, collaborative, and deeply uninterested in dismissing your symptoms just because they’re complicated.

Your hormones don’t exist in a separate little administrative department from your brain. Mood, sleep, cognition, anxiety, energy, sexual health, and physical health are all part of the same wildly interconnected human.

So we’re going to start treating them that way.

Consider this another tiny step in the ongoing female tradition of saying:

“Actually, I’d like to feel good.”

Revolutionary stuff. 🤣

More details coming soon. 🌿
