Summary
Depression as a mental health condition still comes with stigma. There is still that sense that people who are depressed or taking antidepressants are different. In other words, that depression is something to be ashamed of. People seem to forget that being depressed does not change who you are. It does not make a bubbly, excitable and funny person less so. Also the feeling of hopelessness( especially at this time ) is something all of us feel albeit it temporary. In any case, whether our feeling of hopelessness is temporary or lingers on, does not make us less or more of a person we truly are. This episode of YOUTH+EMO podcast gets more into this topic . The episode mentioned other symptoms of depression some of which we don’t always associate with depression. This episode highlights at what point we may need to seek psychosocial support and/or medical intervention. #depression #mentalhealth #youth+emo #podcast #stigma #dwaynejohnson #ladygaga #michaelphelps #jkrowling
