Its been a wild start to 2025. I've found myself grappling with a mysterious illness, the aftermath of wildfires decimating California, advocating for Emma through the educational maze.
The digital landscape, too, has been disrupted as TikTok went dark following a ban, stirring conversations on the vital role social media plays in our lives. While some dismiss it as mere pixels on a screen, for many, it's a vibrant space for expression and connection. This episode unpacks these layered issues, reflecting on the interconnectedness of our mental health, the rapid technological shifts, and the personal resilience needed to navigate this evolving world.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hello everyone, welcome back to Mental
Health-ish.
We are three weeks into theyear 2025 and so much has
happened already.
Like it's literallyunbelievable.
It literally feels like I'mwaiting for a new episode to
drop on this season.
(00:21):
It feels like everything isjust full of suspense.
What worse could happen?
Like everything's just kind oflike one thing after another.
Right, I haven't been able torecord since December because
I've been sick.
If you follow me on Instagram,I've talked a little bit about
the fog, which is now gone,these mystery fogs that
(00:44):
California was having towardsthe end of December.
I got sick New Year's Eve, so Iwas pretty much like under the
weather for like two to threeweeks.
It seemed like I thought I wasfinally getting better, but then
today I woke up with a sorethroat and a dry cough.
So I'm back to coughing again.
(01:06):
I'm back to just not feelingwell, feeling low energy.
But I figured I'd recordsomething because I feel like
there's been so much going onthat I haven't had a chance to
just sit down and record.
So one of the things, obviously, is I feel like everything's
kind of just been crashing down,like there's literally four,
(01:26):
three to four or whateverdifferent wildfires going on
right now People are losingtheir homes.
People are losing homes thathave been in their families for
generations.
The new president just gotinaugurated and things are
already going downhill.
So yeah, just a lot ofdifferent things.
I finally got Emma to do sometesting through Kaiser with a
(01:52):
psychologist.
So if you've been followingthis podcast, you know that that
was one of the big things thatcaused a lot of anxiety and
trauma for me last year wasgoing through the IEP process
for Emma and the schoolpsychologist brushing it off and
saying that Emma hadintellectual disability and
(02:15):
wanting to put Emma in specialeducation classes, which I 100%
disagreed with and had to fightfor and decline for her to be
put in special education classes.
It was a very stressful time.
So I took her back to thepsychologist through Kaiser to
(02:39):
get some testing done just toroll out ADHD, which I think she
has, or just whatever.
I just wanted to get someanswers.
So we finally went to thepsychologist this week and,
after scoring some of thetesting that she did, the
psychologist called me backyesterday to just kind of give
me a quick little update on herfindings so far and she
(03:03):
completely agreed with me andsaid that she doesn't think that
it is intellectual disabilityjust by the looks of the results
from the cognitive testing thatEmma completed with them and I
was like, yes, I knew it.
I freaking told you, no, butfor all I knew that it wasn't
that and I knew that they weretrying to brush it off and say
(03:25):
you know, this is what it is,just to kind of just push her
into like special educationclasses.
So, anywho, that's the updateon that.
The psychologist is still goingto get in contact with the
psychologist at the school toconsult, you know, and talk
about you know all these thingsand really try to get to the
bottom of how we could best helpher.
(03:45):
But that's been, I mean, one ofthe many stressors right so far
.
Another thing was this wholeTikTok ban thing.
So I'm sure you guys had heardthat TikTok is a social media
app application, you know, justlike Facebook, instagram.
So TikTok is another socialmedia app that was temporarily,
(04:10):
I guess, banned by thegovernment and so it went
completely dark on the 19th ofthis month, so just just four
days ago.
It seems like so long agoalready, but it hasn't been that
long from now from when I'mrecording this.
So, yeah, that was like a wholenother thing.
(04:30):
I've never made.
I've no, I've never made anylike money off TikTok.
So it's not like I'm like thisyou know big creator that is
making money off this app orwhatnot.
I have gotten like a lot offree products and free samples
through TikTok to make reviewsfor, so that's like the only
(04:50):
thing and so, yeah, I haven'tmade any money off that, but
yeah, it was just really.
It was just really sad to seeand I know a lot of people were
like, oh, it's just an app.
Oh my gosh, like you're being,you guys are being so dramatic.
It's just an app that is beingbanned.
Oh my gosh, go touch some grass, so do something else.
(05:12):
You know, get a real job.
Not to me directly, but theseare all things that I was seeing
and reading online and hearingpeople say and it's not so if
you don't, if you are a personthat hasn't used TikTok, tiktok
is not just an app, right, Ithink when it first during the
pandemic right like 2020, a lotof people really started
(05:34):
downloading this application andat first I was one of those
people where I was like I'm notdownloading another app, I'm not
going to download thisapplication.
It looks stupid.
There was like I felt like itwas childish right, like there
was a lot of kids on there,there was a lot of dancing and
just things like that.
I was like I'm not going todownload this app.
(05:55):
But yes, I ended up downloadingit and over the years it's
become a super popularapplication where people of all
ages are on the app Literallyall ages right are on this
application.
To me, and then, obviously,like a lot of other people on
(06:19):
the app agree, like from what Iwas seeing online, it's not just
an application and it's notjust a social media app.
So, through this application, alot of people were able to get
information directly from thepeople, from the source, which
is the people experiencing thethings.
(06:40):
So, for example, you couldsearch up, you know, on the
TikTok search bar Palisades fire.
I don't know, that's an exampleand you would get a lot of
videos of what is going on, ofthe Palisade fire, from people,
from direct people, whether itbe, you know, people that were
affected, friends of people thatwere affected, like whatever,
(07:02):
like residents you know in thearea.
You would get a lot ofinformation and videos from
actual people.
On the other hand, if you wereto search that same thing up,
like on Google or I don't know,maybe even Facebook, I don't
know, I haven't searched onFacebook a lot you wouldn't get
that.
Instead, you would probably getnews, videos and news articles
(07:26):
from big news channels big news,you know people, whether it is
Fox News, abc, whatever, likeyou would get your information
from them.
So I think that's what I thinkmade it like sucky, I guess, for
a lot of people is, you know,through this application, like a
(07:46):
lot of people get a lot of realtime information on things that
are going on, things that not alot of people get.
A lot of real time informationon things that are going on,
things that not a lot of likeyou can't find it in regular
news a lot of the times, and ifyou do, it's probably something
that is censored, something thatis fixed or you know a certain
way, like it's not 100% true orlike as it is most of the time.
(08:11):
And so that was like one of thethings I know, even for myself,
like I, you know, could stay upon TikTok, like looking at
videos, searching things up ondifferent things, whether it is
you know, whatever, like youcould literally just find
anything on it like real timeinformation.
I know I stayed up a few timeslike looking up the the Bayside
(08:35):
Mall aliens you know the fog,the mystery fog that I was
talking about earlier.
People's experiences about thefog all across the US, or you
know whatever like people'sactual experiences the
hurricanes, you know.
Whatever Like people's actualexperiences the hurricanes, you
know.
Whatever I know I stayed uplots of times like just looking
(08:57):
at things and learning.
But yeah, another thing was alot of people were going to lose
their income through this app.
So through the TikTok app, like, you're able to make money and
there's a lot of different waysto do so.
Obviously, once you get up infollowers and you're able to
(09:19):
join, you know their creatorprogram or whatnot you could get
paid for views on your video.
That's one way.
Like I've mentioned, you couldcreate like a TikTok shop so you
could get like free samples topromote and review.
That's another way, right, thatyou're making money.
You can make money throughsales on those products or on
(09:39):
your shop.
So your shop are like differentproducts that you recommend.
You could make money throughjust a bunch of different ways.
And not only that, but a lot ofsmall businesses were using
TikTok to make sales.
So like there's people thatwould like go be on live, you
know, for hours on in the daywhile they're packaging orders
(10:02):
or while they're promoting youknow their product or their
service and they would generatea lot of sales.
So a lot of small businesseswere using that to make money.
So that was another thing.
Also, what I was seeing a lot islike through this application,
it's kind of a different vibetoo.
(10:23):
So, like with Instagram,facebook, you have a lot of your
connections and friends andfollowers are people that you
know from the past, right, likeit could be your family members,
your ex, you know coworkers orex classmates from college, like
that type of thing.
Through TikTok, most of thesupport is coming from strangers
(10:44):
, so not a lot of people havethose connections the same
connections you have like onInstagram, facebook or other
platforms like you don't reallyhave those on TikTok.
I've heard of a lot of peopleactually blocking family members
and like people that theyactually know on TikTok Because
it's like a place that's kind oflike unofficial.
This is unofficial, like it's aplace to connect with strangers
(11:08):
, and so the same video that youpost on Instagram, if you post
it on TikTok, you're gettinglike double, triple the
engagement.
So like the likes, the comments, like people are just super
supportive and that's just thetype of vibe.
But, anywho, all this to say isthat I know you guys are like
(11:29):
why are you talking about thisapplication?
But all of this to say is thatthis was a big deal for some
people.
It was a really big deal forsome people because it felt like
you know why are you banningthis app?
That is helping a lot of people, making people happy, but yet
you're ignoring other biggerproblems, right?
(11:49):
So that was one of the things.
Another thing is, people areallowed to feel joy and I want
to say that again.
People are allowed to feel joyand happiness in whatever way
that looks like for them.
Okay, so if people want toscroll through TikTok and look
at videos and laugh and funnyvideos, you know, look at live
(12:11):
videos from people that theyjust like watching and you know
it brings comfort to them insome way.
If people want to I don't knowwatch videos or live while they
clean or while they get throughthe day, or just want to be on
this app, you know, in thesecommunities to get through their
depression or through theirloneliness.
(12:31):
Like let them be.
Like people are allowed to feelhappy and even if that's
different than what you would do, it's okay.
Like we're all different andwe're all going to have
different things that make usfeel good, make us feel happy,
that may help us pass the timewhen we're bored, right.
And another thing is like noteverything should be so serious
(12:55):
all the time.
Not everything should be soserious all the time.
Not everything should be a lifelesson or a learning
opportunity.
Like at the end of the day, atthe end of a long day at work,
where I'm just like exhausted,mentally frustrated, I don't
want to learn something, or, youknow, sometimes I don't want to
(13:16):
read a book.
Like, sometimes I just want tobe in bed watching videos or
watching TikToks or watchingsomething funny, you know, to
kind of decompress.
Like not every minute of theday has to be productive or be
you know what I mean Like bedoing something productive or be
(13:38):
doing something like learningsomething, or blah, blah, blah.
Like allow people to be happyin whatever way that is for them
and that's it.
Like don't make people feel bad,don't make people feel like, oh
my gosh, like you're on thisapp, do something else.
It's just an app, like it's not, you know, for a lot of people,
and I wasn't like affected bigtime.
I'm not saying this for myself,like because I just told you
(14:01):
guys I didn't make any money offthis app.
I'm speaking just in generalbecause I saw how much it
affected other people and justthe things that people were
saying online.
But, yeah, I don't know, let meknow what you guys think.
Were you guys affected by this?
What are your thoughts?
Let me know.
But that was just what I wasthinking and it was just like
(14:21):
really stressful to watch peoplestress out so much about it.
Like I really felt bad.
I felt for people and just someof the things that I was
hearing.
I was like my gosh.
Like it's, yeah, but anywho, ifyou guys want to follow my
social media, the links are allin on my website,
mentalhealthishcom.

(14:44):
is just what I stuck by foreverything.

that's just one of the manythings I feel like.
The year 2025 has been so crazy,so stressful, and I just so
like what's next?

thoughts are and how you havebeen doing this year so far, and
hopefully I'm back to recordingmore consistently now that I'm
getting.
