Buffy starts off Season 5 with something we hope is useful to you right now: hope.

Buffy shares about her experiences with depression, which she describes as a cave. She talks about how why, in the darkness of the cave, things like green juice and gratitude practices can't always touch the heart of depression. She shares stories of her father, foot massages, and Robin Williams to illuminate the secretive nature of depression and the ways hope can help us keep going.

Just keep going.

A content warning: in this episode, Buffy talks about suicide.
