How Grief, Depression, and Childhood Trauma Intersect for Highly Sensitive People and Mental Health

Have you ever wondered why depression feels so heavy and unending? In this episode, Nikki Eisenhauer discusses how grief and depression are deeply interconnected, particularly for highly sensitive people (HSPs). We explore how recognizing various forms of grief—beyond the death of loved ones—can lead to profound healing and recovery. By understanding personal losses like stability, self-worth, and childhood innocence, viewers can begin to address their grief and ultimately improve their mental health. This episode offers insights and strategies for HSPs, empaths, and those recovering from abuse and trauma.
