Has anxiety turned your life upside and has caused loneliness? Are you worried and fear you will not fulfill your purpose?

In my third season, I am pleased to present the 7 minute series.  In this series I will select a discussion topic and offer a homework assignment at the end.  Go back and listen to the other episodes to stay motivated and encouraged. Big thank you to the thousands of subscribers who tune in every month.

I vow to encourage those who have a mental illness and their loved ones to push through the pain and come out brighter on the other side. I am excited to share with you my experiences living with depression for most of my adult life and learning to manage and cope with this debilitating disease. 

• My goal is to spread awareness about the Mental Health epidemic and provide insight, and understanding about the daily challenges individuals with mental health issues. It is hard to get out of bed in the morning or feel motivated to interact with others.  Quite often it feels as though a dark cloud is hovering over you.  During the most painful times you just feel ALONE.                                                                                                                                                        
• Suicide has become the number one cause of death in the WORLD.   Every 50 seconds someone in the world is ending their life.  Children as young as eight years old are being bullied and taunted…. they are committing suicide in record numbers.

Share this podcast and lets reduce those alarming numbers.

Are you struggling with mental illness? Are you lonely and filled with sadness? Are you worried and fear you will not fulfill your purpose? You are not your mental illness and recognizing you may need help takes courage. I applaud you for taking the first step to help reduce feelings of overwhelm, pain and anxiety.

The worst part of depression is not knowing day to day how you will be feeling. As we all know, time waits for no one which means a depressive episode can occur at the worst possible time. These episodes render the sufferer helpless and sometimes incapacitated. If they are working and have a busy week that requires their attention to details and optimal performance; this situation can place them in jeopardy.  They may need to engage with others and be upbeat, but they may not be up to it. Here is when the, ‘I am happy and everything is fine mask is put on.  No matter what comes your way, it seems depression can adversely affect the outcome.

However, when you begin to change your mindset and refocus you begin to realize the unmasked potential inside of you.  Put a plan in action in place today and wait for the amazing outcome.  Stay in the Game of Life; Giving Up Is NEVER an option.

Have you ever heard the saying, "The birds of a feather, flock together?' Who are you allowing to speak into your life and plant seeds.  Are they seeds that have been planted in good soil? Are they friends who believe in your aspirations and encourage you to accomplish all that you set out to achieve.  If we do not surround ourselves with like-minded individuals who have our best interest at heart; we are deferring our dreams.  Ask yourself, 'What is holding me back or better yet; Who is holding you back.  We all need someone to believe in us.  Make sure you have winners on your team and in your corner.

I once listened to a sermon from a pastor who said this, “If you want more friends, show yourself friendly and be the best friend you can be.” He went on to say, “If you think you lack courage, watch someone you believe is courageous and emulate them.” I started to apply this concept in my own life as I deal with depression daily; I decided I would always have a kind word for someone and If I knew what would make them happy, I would find a way to do just that for them.  I have always had a giving nature and because I feel so blessed I give freely and frequently. It never fails that I am blessed for my giving, even though it is never my motivation.

Go out there and achieve the desires of your heart!!

WELCOME to SEASON TWO of Win Over Depression, I am your host, Tamera Trotter.  This podcast is dedicated to shedding light on mental illness through education, experience and real life examples. I have suffered from chronic depression for most of my adult life however, when I decided to become transparent about my diagnosis all of my friends were astonished. 

You see, those of us who suffer with a mental illness are experts at masking our true feelings. When the world is sleeping we are up thinking, coping and trying to quiet the thoughts in our head. I know that….. Mental illness does NOT define me nor anyone who suffers with an often times debilitating condition; yet this disease is the most under-treated in the world.

I have learned how to be proactive living with chronic depression and thriving anyway. Suicide has become the number one cause of death in the America. I vow to stop the stigma associated with mental illness and educate everyone on the importance of treating mental health disorders as you would any other medical condition. 

It is vital to conduct a mental health assessment of adults and children on a regular basis because the suicide rate of children between the ages of 8-14 is on the rise.
