Belonging, loneliness, and coping in Denmark. The line between belonging and losing yourself can be thin sometimes.
That’s what Derek, Brooke and therapist and author guest Lucy Vittrup Christensen explore in this episode. Together they explore how the pressure to fit in, the loneliness of expat life, and Denmark’s open drinking and drug culture can blur the line between social habits and addiction.
Lucy explains how addiction often grows from the same place as loneliness. a longing for connection, and why internationals may be more vulnerable when routines, roles, and identities shift abroad.
If you’ve ever felt you were coping instead of connecting, this conversation offers perspective, honesty, and practical steps toward support.
