“I was recently sent the episode on having a narcissistic mother by a friend. I found myself cringing to get through this episode. While I understand, you are centering your guests experience. This is their story. The way bipolar disorder is portrayed is really damaging and harmful. The very loud fat phobia throughout this whole episode it’s so bad. Blaming a parent for weight gain and vilifying mom for being in a larger body. I hope that the participant goes to her own therapy and unpacks some of this. If you’re going to interview folks with such an intense personal conversation, I feel you should partner with a therapist, or someone who is a mental health expert to be present.”
