Hey friends!

Join us as we give a glimpse of what life with depression can feel like, how major depressive disorder is diagnosed, and why seeking professional help is always the best choice. Depression can distort our sense of truth, and while the conversations can be hard, healing begins when we face them with honesty and support.

Remember, any thought that leads you to despair is A LIE. Your thoughts do not define your worth. Reach out, talk to someone, and know that help is always available. You are not alone.

Listen to this week’s episode of From Both Sides Of The Couch: ADHD Big Brother: Depression, Suicidal Ideations, and Radical Acceptance.
