“Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.”― C.S. Lewis

The truth in this quote by C.S Lewis speaks directly to the mental illness we call depression. Depression is something people have a hard time categorizing but even a harder time escaping. In this week's episode, Marty and Josh discuss the elements that make depression similar to anxiety but more severe in a different way. They talk about the difference between being sad and being depressed as well as the criteria for a clinical depression diagnosis. The discussion leads to understanding how the spiritual life, mental wellness, and physical health contribute to depression. There needs to be an awareness about how the spiritual life can contribute to depressive feelings. The guys also review Lavazza Qualita Rossa coffee for there Dirty Brew review.
