I’m not going to lie Rachel, the title stopped me watching your show for a long time. Once I found it I watched it non stop on repeat and I think Ive watched it through at least 5 times now! This show definitely made me feel seen.
Rachel Bloom is the first person i really genuinely thought " this woman looks like me and she acts like me/my friends" crazy ex girlfriend broke me in the best way possible. I have BPD i have other mental problems. Im 26 now and this show changed my life. Truly
Just came across this today. I have been a huge Rachel Bloom fan since the days Cracked was showing her videos. And Jameela Jamil!? Has anything cooler ever happened anywhere in the universe than Jameela Jamil interviewing Rachel Bloom!?
I love Rachel, and I loved Jameela on The Good Place, so I was happy to listen to iweigh for the first time. I actually cried as Rachel started “I weigh…”, because I didn’t know that was part of the podcast, and it’s a sentence starter that for years has come with a lot of anxiety, fear, and shame. So to hear Rachel say such beautiful things instead of a number (which I understand is the exact point), was not only empowering, but healing. Thank you 🙏
First of all, love you both. Second of all, this interview gave a TON of context to Rachel's book. I'm a huge fan and I loved I Want to be Where the Normal People Are but as someone who has anxiety but not any OCD symptoms, this free form interview was so helpful. I was lost in those parts of the book. I don't wish the book was longer but I'm happy I listened to this. I would suggest that anyone who would like further context, especially from the woman herself, to listen to this.
This was amazing! So insightful and validating…thank you both so much for your frank honesty and vulnerability…it’s so helpful to know we are not alone…thank you again you two wonderful strong women! 💜💜
I loved this episode! I love you both, you are and inspiration for me on mental health and watching an episode of you two together was amazing. Crazy ex-girlfriend helped me a lot accepting taking medicine is okay, and this podcast always makes me feel less alone. Thank you both for everything you do. Greetings from Monterrey, Mexico
I really loved this conversation. I admire both for their work, but specially for the good the are doing bringing up this important subjects to the table.
I have very serious Rejection Sensitivity & it actually makes my life quite horrible. You start panicking in situations similar to ones that have been embarrassing before, then you can't do stuff. Really sucks.
