“Beyond the Veil” Episode 47: “Really, What Is Perfect Anyway?”

by Madison Ford · August 10, 2020

The Harry Potter books are a common thread of stability, joy, and escape in the lives of many fans. In today’s episode, Sabrina joins us to talk about the benefits of receiving a mental health diagnosis, how Sorting can help us find ourselves, and the beautiful lessons about grief the Potter series holds for us.

 

 

Trigger warning: self-harm, suicidal thoughts, death of a loved one

On Episode 47, we discuss…

→Being bullied for “nerdy” things

→The importance of seeking help at a young age

→A mother’s love and support

→The positive experience of a diagnosis

→Spirituality and mental health

→When Sorting helps you find yourself

→The ones who love us never really leave us

“When we come face-to-face with one down a dark alley, we’re going to be having a look to see if its solid, aren’t we, we’re not going to be asking, ‘Excuse me, are you the imprint of a departed soul?’”
