My Family Member Is Mentally Ill and “Off The Derech”. How Can I Be Healthy?

In this deeply personal episode, our guest shares her journey of navigating life with a brother who has left the path of religious observance (OTD) and struggles with mental health challenges. She reflects on how his journey impacted her own—shaping her values, her relationships, and ultimately her approach to life and G-d. Dr. Z addresses the guest’s confusion at G-d, offers insights on resilience, and how we can hold space for those closest to us, even when our paths diverge. This episode is a testament to the strength it takes to redefine family and faith amidst life’s uncertainties.
