Today on Your Girlfriends Favorite Podcast, The Mastodon talks about Depression, his upbringing, and how that started him on a journey of redemption and self discovery. In part 2, we discuss examples of trying to retrain the brain to be more positive, some traumatic experiences and how they correlated with exacerbating my depression as a teenager, and how focusing on positivity and having the right mindset could put you on a journey to being a better you. Thank you all for tuning in and if you or someone is suffering from depression, please seek help from someone. If things take a turn for the worse, remember, people care about you and there are those willing to help. If you or someone you know has suicidal thoughts or explicitly remarks their wish to hurt themselves please call the suicide hotline at 1-800-273-8255. Much love and peace to all.
