Welcome to Episode 3 – What it’s Like to Live With Depression

Today I discuss the dark cloud, or black dog, that many of us walk around with... Depression.

I talk about the signs to look out for and how Depression has showed up in my life. From when it showed up in high school, to how it manifested in the lead up to my diagnosis in 2012.

I also share some of the things I have done to treat my Depression, in the hope that it might encourage you (or someone you know) to try them if they haven't already.
