3 Reasons Why Getting Better Can Feel Worse
Dr. Scott Eilers
@drscotteilersAbout
The mental health field has done a terrible job of providing practical information to people. This frustrates me immensely. There absolutely are scientific, practical mental health tools that can and do change lives, and so few people are teaching them. This channel is for us: those whose needs run deeper; those of us living on the Isle of Misfits Toys. My goal for this channel is to create the highest quality information about depression and anxiety for the people who need it most; those who are living with it every day. My name is Dr. Scott. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, podcast host, and the author of the book "For When Everything Is Burning." I specialize in treating moderate to severe mood and anxiety disorders because I've lived them for decades. Disclaimer: This content is not intended to be a replacement for receiving treatment.

Improving mental health doesn't always translate to feeling emotionally better. It's a dangerous assumption that can lead to discouragement. Despite working diligently on therapies or medications, feeling stagnant is a common experience. As pathological feelings decrease, non-pathological ones may emerge, revealing newfound vulnerability. I'm breaking down three reasons why this can happen, what these things actually mean, and some ideas for what you can do about them.
