339. The psychology of rock bottom

Hitting rock bottom is one of the most painful human experiences - when the future is blurry, the past feels heavy, and you barely recognize the person staring back in the mirror. Maybe it’s the end of a relationship, losing your job, battling addiction, or simply feeling like everything you built has crumbled. In this episode, we explore what those lowest points really feel like, why we sometimes end up there, and how, against all odds, they can become the very place where healing and transformation begin.

We explore:

• What rock bottom feels like
• The role of identity collapse and self-concept clarity
• Passivity, external locus of control, and addiction as routes to rock bottom
• Our dark night of the soul and searching for meaning
• Why rock bottom can motivate change
• 5 tips climbing out and rebuilding self-concept

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost control, lost yourself, or lost your way - this episode is for you.
