I don't need to tell you how hard depression is. Left untreated, you can start to develop thoughts about suicide. But it does seem to be a long-term solution to a short-term problem.
Suffering in silence may seem like an option but that just makes it worse and drives the depression deeper. If that's the case, what CAN you do to get your life back on track?
In this episode I am in conversation with life coach, international public speaker, actress, and multi-award winning voice-vibration sound healer Judith Quin who has personal experience in this. She had what she calls a "'blip" in 2016 and reveals what led her to that place and how she got herself out.
This subject is too important to do anything other than listen carefully, absorb the important messages and to share with others. Everybody is struggling with their private battles. A smiling face is no evidence of all being well. And an "I'm fine" is no indicator of things being fine at all. Many put up a front and suffer in silence. Be part of the solution. Like and share. You never know whose life it might save.
