Hello guys, how’s the week coming along? Well, guess on a global level – things have been quite stressful, especially with the Afghanistan and Taliban issue that we have all been hearing about day in and day out. Distressing images of the Taliban taking over Afghanistan are beamed into televisions throughout the day, leading to fear, instability and conflict which also brings up the question of where are we really heading towards, not just at an individual level but at a collective level? Are we progressing or regressing in our approach? For that matter, mental health issues are rising too! And with whatever that’s going on – I thought it was best to remember that – we can cope up even though life gets tough and tests us over and over again. And no better episode to share the highlights of than with the one where I interviewed Vipp Jaswal who gives us an insight into his journey with Depression and how he came out of it. Sometimes, it helps to know other people’s journey and resonate with it. I hope you’ll find this episode helpful and if you want to listen to the entire episode – I have mentioned the link in the show notes! Depression is more than just feeling down or having a bad day. When a sad mood lasts for a long time and interferes with normal, everyday functioning, you may be depressed. Symptoms of depression include:1 • Feeling sad or anxious often or all the time • Not wanting to do activities that used to be fun • Feeling irritable‚ easily frustrated‚ or restless • Having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep • Waking up too early or sleeping too much • Eating more or less than usual or having no appetite • Experiencing aches, pains, headaches, or stomach problems that do not improve with treatment • Having trouble concentrating, remembering details, or making decisions • Feeling tired‚ even after sleeping well • Feeling guilty, worthless, or helpless • Thinking about suicide or hurting yourself The following information is not intended to provide a medical diagnosis of major depression and cannot take the place of seeing a mental health professional. If you think you are depressed‚ talk with your doctor or a mental health professional immediately. This is especially important if your symptoms are getting worse or affecting your daily activities.
