"I don't differentiate between the two," he says. "There's no way that's not an anxious feeling where he's worrying." The depression is setting in and he's now crossed where he goes into suicidality, which is hopelessness. Chronic hopelessness is by far the strongest predictor of suicide in any situation.

In our final episode of Season 1 we discuss the life and trials of George Bailey and attempt to answer the question of whether "Wonderful" is a fair assessment. We debate whether George's symptoms are primarily based in depression or anxiety as well as debate the co-morbidity of depression, anxiety, and trauma. We detail the treatments available to help George as he faces his existential crisis. Tune in to find out more and Happy Holidays to all!
