Listen Later

Content warning: This podcast contains conversations around self-harm and suicidal ideation. The pit of despair is a tough and tricky place. How can you find a way through when it feels like you're fumbling around in the dark? Mollie West Duffy and Liz Fosslien, authors of Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay, return for another heartfelt conversation with Ali Schultz. In this episode, we define despair and describe how in all of its facets, it is not simply depression. Mollie shares honestly about some of her darkest days and Liz discusses her struggles with emotional suppression. As a group, they talk about ways to resource yourself if you find yourself there, and how to be with someone who is in despair in a supportive, empathetic way. They emphasize the power of small acts and the importance of seeking help by opening up to trusted friends and professionals. We hope you'll find this raw and honest conversation on mental health and hope valuable. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!
