Going Mental ft. Eileen Kelly - a podcast by Caitlin Kelley

TW: depression, suicidal thoughts, drug use

Today I am joined by sexual educator and mental health advocate Eileen Kelly. Eileen and I discuss everything from how she started her iconic blog Killer and a Sweet Thang (KAAST) in her early teens, to how she launched her current podcast Going Mental with Eileen Kelly. Eileen opens up about how as her brand success grew, her mental health began to deteriorate in turn, causing her to check into the famous mental health hospital McLean. Together we discuss her time in McLean, the pros and cons of medication, the stigmatization of both sexual and mental health, and so much more. We finish off the episode with the segment “Quarter Life Qualms,” an examination of the 20s and her experiences as a 20-something, and a game of “7 Tea Questions,” 7 fun rapid-fire questions. Follow Eileen @eileen and @killerandasweetthang and listen to "Going Mental with Eileen Kelly" wherever you get your podcasts. Read her blog at https://killerandasweetthang.com/.
