Mental Illness Happy Hour

Dr. Margaret Rutherford is a clinical psychologist, author, and TEDx speaker. Throughout the course of her work, she noticed something that she calls Perfectly Hidden Depression, emotional pain camouflaged by achievement, tight emotional control, and a perfect-seeming life. If this sounds like you, look for her book Perfectly Hidden Depression Workbook: A Step-by-Step Guide to Challenge the Ten Traits of Perfectionism That Mask Your Depression.

A powerful and intimate conversation and one of Paul’s favorites (and the origin of the "Herbert's Butthole" riff). Originally aired in 2015, the then 28 year-old Syrian opens up about always being the minority wherever she lives (She was born in Syria, grew up in Brazil and now lives in the US), racism towards Arabs, recovering from sexual abuse, battling depression and anxiety and how getting help has saved her life. Her boyfriend Haydn, whose episode was rerun a few weeks ago also sits in on the interview.
