I was driving along beach road in Cape Town today, the old black dog biting at my heals this morning. Having gone through my own severe depressive episodes I've been trying to make sense of them. The purpose, the mechanism behind intense emotional experiences like anxiety and depression. It can't just be my body dragging me down for fun. It also cant just be a chemical imbalance, my personality, or my DNA. Ive been searching for a why. In this episode of "Fight Your Funk" I try make sense of why the body responds in such a manner and I start touching on what can be done about it. I maintain that depression is call to action to the brave, those who dare to listen. In saying that, when you hit that downer, it's very real, and very debilitating, don't feel like you need to go through it alone, "I have the strength to reach out if you have the courage to take my hand". Have a listen, share your thoughts 🐲
