Episode Description What happens when you’re not exactly depressed… but you don’t really feel alive either? This week, we talk about emotional numbness, doomscrolling, avoidance, shame, and the strange exhaustion so many people are carrying right now. Why do we avoid the things we know would help us feel better? Why does everything start to feel mentally heavy? Cat and Kel explore the nervous system’s role in shutdown, the difference between rest and disconnection, and the small ways people can begin reconnecting with themselves again — without shame or pressure. We'd love to hear from you! Go to thekitchenshrink.com and submit a question and we'll do our best to feature it on an episode.
