Hi, I kinda went in blind, which was… something. I too struggle with chronic depression, anxienty and ©ptsd. I’m not gonna lie, it hit me like a hammer in the chest. I had to step away multiple times, could only watch it alone and had to bring it up in therapy. But! I extremly love it! I love the show for itself, because it’s an amazing show and I love how it helped me recognize some issues and traumas I didn’t realize I had, I love how I felt seen and validated and still pushed to take responsibility for myself, my mental health and my actions.

For me it was quite a trip the first time around. For others I know it was easier to draw boundries between the show and themselves. I’ve watchef it again multiple times and it lost most of the triggers for me by now as well.

I would recommend you try it. It starts relatively easy and grows from there. If it gets to hard or to close, you stop and figure out if it is for you or not, if it is a helpful “closeness” or a trigger.

I listend to the Podcast Horseman podcast. I really liked it to listen to different pov on the series and interacting in between rewatches.
