Are you feeling sad and lost in life? Maybe you’re experiencing depression.
In this week’s episode, let me talk about depression, what is it, and how to overcome it.
In the ebb and flow of life, we sometimes find ourselves navigating through storms of emotions, where shadows seem to linger a bit too long. Depression, a silent but powerful force, can weave its way into the fabric of our existence, altering how we perceive and experience the world. Join me as we unravel the layers of this intricate subject, exploring the signs, stories, and strategies that surround depression. It's a journey through understanding, empathy, and the pursuit of resilience—a journey that begins with a single conversation.
Today, I share my personal journey of overcoming childhood trauma and how you can relate it to depression and anxiety. My story is a testimony that anyone can experience it. Also, I discuss the signs and symptoms of depression and give practical tips for overcoming it.

Quotations:
"Your brain needs to be cared for because mood disorders are very real."
"Depression is a serious medical condition and it's associated with symptoms of feeling a loss, feeling blue, melancholy…”
"Depression… Prolonged sadness or unexplained crying spells. A significant change in appetite or sleep patterns, we talked about that. Inability to focus, anger, worry, agitation, anxiety, irritability. Pessimism, just feeling negative and indifferent, maybe no joy. A loss of energy or even persistent lethargy, and feelings of guilt."
"Depression is something that brings a lot of shame because we think that the brain is just the mind, just the way we see life, just the way we think."
"Depression is very treatable.”
"I want to help you and encourage you to speak life into yourself. I want you to know depression has come to pass.”
