In this session I am able to shed light on the difference between being sad and being clinically depressed. Often times we use depressed and sad interchangeably but there really is a difference between the two. Being clinically diagnosed for depression you need to at least display the symptoms for 2 weeks. Many people try to avoid feeling sad but the truth is we need to feel sad at times. Listen in as I dive into the importance of feeling sad and things you can do if you are clinically diagnosed with depression. We are still celebrating National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month and Purposeful Parenting Month.
