Hosted by: Scotty B In one of the most important conversations of the season, Scotty B dives headfirst into the complex relationship between cosplay and mental health. While cosplay can be a powerful outlet for expression, confidence, and connection—it can also trigger anxiety, burnout, body image issues, and intense pressure to perform. This episode explores both sides of that emotional coin: Is cosplay healing us… or slowly hurting us? Scotty shares honest reflections on his own journey and calls for a more honest dialogue in the community—where creators don’t feel the need to mask struggle for the sake of aesthetics or engagement. If you've ever felt emotionally drained by cosplay, or wondered whether it’s still good for you, this episode will help you unpack that question with care, compassion, and clarity.
