Now That's Life! With Dr. Nina

Episode 49 | Anxiety vs Depression | A Psychologist's Guide to the Difference


Listen Later

Ever googled "Am I depressed or just sad?" at 2 AM? You're not alone! Dr. Nina Ellis-Hervey breaks down the key differences between anxiety and depression - two common mental health conditions that often get confused.

  • What anxiety and depression actually are (and how they show up differently)
  • Why these conditions get mixed up and can occur together
  • Practical tools you can use right now
  • When to seek professional help
  • How to break mental health stigma


Key insight: Anxiety is future-focused fear; depression affects your present state. Both are treatable medical conditions, and seeking help is strength, not weakness.

Your mental health is essential to reaching your full potential - you're DOPE (Destined to Obtain Prosperity in Everything)!
