The Dysregulated Podcast
I live with anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, OCD & BPD — and this podcast shares the hard-fought lessons I’ve learned along the way.
This is lived-experience mental health, told with complete honesty and zero filter, including the vulnerable and significant moments that continue to shape my life today.
Through personal reflections, therapy insights, interviews, nervous system regulation, and real-world struggles, I explore what it means to live with complex mental illness — grounded in psychological science and research.

Intake Interviews #2 - Stell (Part 2): A Brighter Outlook on Life and Motherhood
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Content Warning: This episode includes discussions on substance abuse, mental illness, and motherhood challenges. Listener discretion is advised. This episode also contains explicit material.
Stell returns to the show, this time showcasing her renewed positive frame of mind. The interview contrasts sharply with Stell's previous appearance, highlighting how mood shifts can deeply influence our thoughts, words, and actions. With BPD and ADHD in particular, we find that there is this constant battle between emotional extremes. These two conversations with Stell when compared with each other, provide an insightful look into the contrasts that can occur within our minds, and how that can play out in the real world. This is as real, genuine, honest and vulnerable as it gets!
