Dating? Yes, But First, Therapy

It’s like any other system. Injuries need healing, weakness needs strengthening, and if you are struggling, it may be time to ask for help. These words echo back to me as I decide where to hide the latest dating app on my phone. Deciding to squirrel it away in a folder somewhere between the mindfulness and astrology icons while labeling it “someday, maybe.” I chuckle as I picture all of these pieces jumbled together, thinking it’s probably what my brain must look like. How long has it been since I have asked for help sorting it all out; how long ...

How To Get Your Ex Back

The Real Secrets of Radical Accountability Alex shows up naked at my door concealed in a long, gray windbreaker, holding one green plant and one white envelope. I try not to roll my eyes, because I just know there’s a long note in that envelope. She won’t stop calling and begging me to take her back, but she knows I don’t want to see her. I’ve been ghosting her ever since she ruined our relationship. A Sad Love Story For a full spring, I’d swept Alex off her feet with massages, mind-blowing sex, concerts, walks with her dog and treating ...

The Cost of Being Everywhere

Social Media Has a Fierce Grip on Many—But Not All If the mere mention of the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once makes your heart pound, you’re not alone. While the Oscar-winner might have been about parallel realities simultaneously colliding, the expression hits a little close to home for many. And not in a good way. “There is a pressure to be everywhere now, and it isn’t accidental,” said Matt Navarra, a UK-based social media consultant who has worked with Google, Meta and the BBC, among others. “I think it’s a bit of a perfect storm.” And a perfect storm it ...

In Love With My Best Friend

The things I love about my best friend, Kiera, are her Disney nose, take-me eyes and delicate, tattooed shoulders. But I’m especially attracted to how her lascivious mouth opens wide with her big and brash laughs, as if she were onstage entertaining an audience of assholes just like her. Right now we’re at cocktail hour in our favorite bar. As usual, she’s backstabbing our friends. (The names used below are pseudonyms.) “Remember that guy Sami’s been fucking?” “The married guy?” I ask. “Yeah. She’s stalking him now.” “No way!” “Yes way,” Keira says. “She went to his house and sliced ...

Honoring Mental Health Awareness Month

It wasn’t too long ago when going to therapy was something people kept to themselves. Work burnout was framed as dedication, and anxiety was something you just learned to live with. The idea that your emotional state deserved the same attention as your physical health was a foreign concept. End of an Era Today mental health is a regular topic in daily conversations, unlike in past generations. People mention their therapists as casually as they talk about personal trainers or Botox. Saying, “I’ve been working through some stuff” has become now normal. For many young people, getting help is no ...
