Unmasking the Silent Epidemic: Finding Peace in a Depressed World

Join renowned Christian author and speaker Florence Littauer as she candidly opens up about her own journey with depression. This powerful episode peels back the layers of this pervasive emotional illness, exploring its surprising reach and devastating consequences, including the alarming epidemic of child and teenage suicides.

Littauer reveals the diverse faces of depression, from those taught to be "born losers" to successful individuals who've lost their way. Discover the often-missed symptoms like passivity, self-deprecation, withdrawal, and the critical, counterintuitive "sudden improvement" that can signal a dangerous turning point.

More than just identifying the problem, Florence offers a constructive and positive path to healing. Learn practical self-help strategies, from reviewing your finances and improving self-image to breaking cycles of overeating and avoiding negative influences.

Most profoundly, she illuminates how spiritual healing and a renewed focus on God can transform hopelessness into abundant joy and wholeness. This episode is an essential listen for anyone seeking to understand, cope with, or overcome the silent struggle of depression.
