I Don't Wanna Be Sad Anymore
In honor of September's #SuicidePreventionMonth today's episode covers depression because doesn't it sometimes just feel like everyone's depressed??? Well... it's because everyone probably is.
On today's episode I share one of the darkest times of my life. As I choke up and cry, I share my painful story of shame, battling with clinical depression 5 years ago and how I almost didn't think I'd survive it. I also discuss the difference between being sad, feeling depressed, and having actual clinical depression.
PERSONAL MESSAGE TO MY BADDIES OUT THERE:
Please know that you are not alone, you are loved, and I'm so proud of you for getting out of bed today! The pain you are feeling won't last forever... I promise. The sun will rise tomorrow and we will try again. <3
