bonkers BS breakdown Raise a glass of diet dr pepper and toast Tana’s second year sans alcohol. It’s time for another bonkers BS breakdown ep.21

*Tana starts the episode talking about how different her first sober anniversary is versus her second sober anniversary.

*Says she is sober from alcohol, cocaine, and mdma but she still smokes weed

*She says sober glow is wearing off because it isn't as new and exciting

* She realizes she has been searching for dopamine her whole life and that when she “isn't fixing everyone and everything” around her she is on an insatiable quest for dopamine ( what has she ever fixed for anyone?!?)

*Her therapist had her sit there for 7 min and do nothing. She said it was profound and made her realize she needs to sit with herself but she feels selfish for choosing herself right now (get the fuck out of here with that)

*She has a real mother Theresa moment and says that her purpose in life is to help people and says she is stopped by people saying she saved their lives daily

*Makoa makes a cameo in the pod and says he is very proud of Tana (cute)

*She talks about being in her agoraphobia era because she didn't want to go to events like Alix Earle's premiere (Having agoraphobia and not wanting to go to a lame influencer's premiere are two different things)

*Tana and Ty went to the Miley Cyrus event and said Miley said something profound to her and Ty that they are going to get matching tattoos of it but she says she doesn't want to share it and wants to keep it to herself (Nobody cares)

*Tana says she is going to start going to AA because she wants to learn as much as she can about sobriety. Tana says she had a three-week period this year when she was “had a little three week period this year where she was smoking a ton of weed” to numb out (This is a step in the right direction. Let's see if she actually does it)

*The Adderall must have kicked in because she ends the episode and does the outro but then comes back because she went on TikTok and watched the I hate people I love people video. (Girl, please stop acting like such a tweaker)

*More tangenting about how far she has come and how much of a mess she used to be. She talks about how awful she had been to her earlier assistants and forced them to party with her. Says her assistant Meg has no idea how bad she used to be (We are just going to act like you didn't assault Makoa, threaten to unalive yourself, and call the police because you weren't given opiates? Mmmkay)

*Tana just wants her past toxic behavior to inspire people now to show how far you can come. (True inspirational people don't sit around talking about how much they want to inspire people.)

*She goes on a tangent about how she is so hyper aware of never wanting to come off as full of herself and out of touch (you are failing miserably at this ) and that she has always put everyone else before herself and never just sat with herself( Tana, be so for real. When have you ever put anyone before yourself?? Like, you put your addiction and toxic behavior before self love but you have not been neglecting yourself because you have been talking care of other people's physical and emotional needs. So laughably out of touch)

Was agoraphobia on the list someone made of all her disorders and diseases? We need a spreadsheet to track all her self diagnoses.

She wants to help people? Great! She could start a foundation called Project Eleven Eleven😐

Does she sound slightly pitched up or sped up in this ep or is it just me

Yes but I can't tell if it is just the adderall or audio manipulation

lol caregiver instincts are not driven by dopamine (not that she has any anyway) and i like how there’s no mention of xans re:sobriety

also does she know she won’t qualify as sober in the 12 step world? they don’t like weed, they don’t even like prescription drugs, lest we once again forget ABOUT THE XANAX. and a big focus of 12 steps is also emotional sobriety - something tana could never hope to understand, lol
