In this podcast episode, our guest, Jessie, shares her journey, revealing how growing up in a family open about mental illness, yet burdened by it, influenced her understanding of her own struggles. Through candid conversations with her parents about their battles, she learned early on that mental illness is not a secret or a fault but a condition to be managed.

Our discussion spotlights the significant, generational impact of honest communication in families, contrasting it with experiences of silence and gaslighting. The conversation touches on the importance of seeking help, the development of coping mechanisms, and the role of support systems in navigating daily challenges.

If you or someone you know is navigating the dark roads of depression, this episode is a must-listen, filled with insights, strategies, and a reminder that by being honest about your experience, you can make others' paths more clear.
