A Psychodelicious Conversation Ep 54 | Ordinary Pain

March 24, 2026 On this episode, Mike, Morgan, and Melissa explore emotional pain and its impact on mental health, especially when it shifts from normal, short-term sadness to deeper, ongoing distress. Everyday life struggles can build up and affect emotional well-being, so when this pain goes unrecognized, it can lead to feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or caged in. Recognizing when emotional pain becomes too much and when to seek support, is instrumental to protecting and improving mental health.
