Why Do You Think You've Got No Friends?

My name is Emily Laing. I'm an actress, writer, singer, recovering addict, survivor and currently en route back from the land of self destruct.

In January 2022 I suffered a nervous breakdown and was convinced my life was over. Turns out - it wasn't. I white knuckled my way out and want to help others who feel the same way that I did. So...

Have you ever found yourself feeling entirely alone? In a place so dark that you can't see a way out? Me too!

Rock bottoms, codependency, rehab, C/PTSD, survival, shameovers. You name it, we discuss it.

Join the journey of recovery and healing and rid the shame!

Incredibly helpful and even healing

I randomly came across Emily’s podcast while looking for anything that could help me not feel so alone. Ironically I found this podcast, “Why do you think you’ve got no friends”. Wasn’t sure what it was all about, but to my surprise was exactly what I needed at this time and place. Emily really leaves you with a bit of hope after each episode, along with this feeling that you aren’t really alone, that there is way out.

Refreshingly Honest & Witty

I have to admit, the title of the podcast alone had me raising an eyebrow in curiosity & was fully prepared to bear witness to a trainwreck. But I never knew how much I needed this raw honesty, delightfully lucid self-awareness perspective on Emily’s path to healing. I related far more than I would have ever admitted to myself. Laughed, cried quietly on a bench, listened over and over again when I felt I was unredeemable. Thank you, Emily, so so much. 🙏🏽
