In this episode of Let’s Talk Love, we had the utmost pleasure of speaking with Allison Raskin. Allison is an American writer, director, comedian and mental health advocate. We talk about Allison's book Overthinking About You: Navigating Romantic Relationships When You Have Anxiety, OCD, and/or Depression. Allison is open about her struggles with mental health. She shares tips on how people can be supportive of their friends and partners who struggle with mental illness without being overly involved or overbearing in their relationships. We also discuss what it means to date when you have anxiety or depression—and how romantic relationships can either help or hurt your mental health depending on how you manage them together. Allison brings so much levity, and deep wisdom to a topic many of us are not truly educated on. We hope you enjoy this conversation!We want to hear from you!
