Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

It's dangerous.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

People are murdered there.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

In fairness to Albuquerque, it's one of those large spread-out towns where it just depends on where you live.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

Yeah, it's also got wonderful, incredible areas.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

I'm not in one of those wonderful, incredible areas.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

And so it felt unsafe, and it was unsafe.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

And during that time, my mother's mental health was really falling apart.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

Turns out she was really suffering from severe depression.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

It's so bad.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

She doesn't even enroll us for school.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

So we get these teachers coming, you know, you got to enroll your kids in school.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

And so we ended up going to school.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

And that fall, we had somebody come take care of us.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

I think her name was Karen.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

Why isn't my mother here?

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

She's taking a break.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

Oh, boy.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

Yeah.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

So what happened was I was not used to Karen's care, which was frankly excellent.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
David Sussillo (on foster care and neuroscience)

I didn't know how to handle that.
