Going Mental with Eileen Kellyinactive

Publisher |: Dear Media

Media Type |: audio

Podknife tags |: Health,; Interview,; Mental Health,; Personal Journals,; Self-Help

Categories Via RSS |: Education,; Health & Fitness,; Mental Health,; Self-Improvement

"She's crazy!" GOING MENTAL was born out of host Eileen Kelly’s commitment to destigmatizing mental health concerns while reclaiming her own narrative. In 2016, Eileen created the blog KILLER AND A SWEET THANG to make sense of things she wished she could have discussed with her mother, whom she lost at a young age: crushes, boyfriends, going on birth control, getting her period. Eileen quickly found herself running one of the most popular blogs of the 2010s, publishing hundreds of articles on sex and identity from other young writers. Despite such early success, internal struggles and a crippling personality disorder drove Eileen to seek treatment at McLean — one of the oldest mental hospitals in the country. After five months and some serious self-discovery, she returned to the outside world looking for a way to disseminate what she'd learned in treatment and connect to others with similar experiences: That's how GOING MENTAL was born.

Each week, Eileen interviews some of today’s most compelling media figures, artists, authors, and celebrities about their own mental health journeys, along with a range of experts who provide information and support around various mental conditions.

New episodes releasing every Thursday.

~Trigger Warning: Suicide Talk~ On today’s episode, Eileen opens up about her own mental health journey. She walks us through her borderline personality disorder (BPD) diagnosis and the wild goose chase she went on to get it — beginning with her life pre-diagnosis and her misinterpretation of her own symptoms. Later, she discusses the BPD diagnosis itself, the relief she felt after getting it, the treatment she received, and what it means that she no longer meets criteria for the disorder.
