***Trigger Warning***

This is a heavier episode and I talk about my suicide attempts and suicidal ideation. I speak of the heaviness of the depression I’ve faced and includes great detail at some points. So if you are suffering or recovering from a mood or mental disorder, please listen with caution or don’t listen at all. The last thing I would want is for hearing these things to set you back in your healing journey or to trigger bad memories or thoughts. Also, if you are a bit more sensitive or an empath, you also may want to listen with caution.

In this episode, I recount my intense depressive episode and what it looked and felt like on the daily. I speak about my suicide attempts and suicide ideation. I also talk about the stigmas and misunderstandings regarding depression as well as what I've taken away and learned from my depression. It has stretched and transformed me. It has grown my capacity to feel emotions and sheer happiness and gratitude.
