For 25 years, it felt easier to lock it away, crack on, and pretend everything was fine, until life had other plans.</p><p><br></p><p>This episode is all about <strong>the “bears” we carry</strong>… the emotional weight, unresolved pain, old stories, and hidden wounds that quietly shape how we think, feel, and cope. Because the truth is, what we avoid doesn’t disappear, it waits.</p><p><br></p><p>They get real about the impact of suppressed trauma, the warning signs we often ignore, and why having open conversations about mental health <em>before</em> things hit breaking point is so important.</p><p><br></p><p>If you’ve ever felt like something from your past still has a grip on you, this episode is your reminder: <strong>you don’t have to carry it alone.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>If you'd like to get involved with the podcast or want to share what's annoyed you this week, you can email <strong>backandforthmmh@gmail.com</strong> to get involved!</p>","author_name":"Back & Forth"}
