Episode 22 of The Health Exchange Podcast explores the complex and deeply personal topic of depression and anxiety with guest Dr. Jihan Ansari, a family medicine physician who integrates mental health into everyday care. Dr. Rutland speaks with her about how these conditions show up differently in each patient and why early intervention can be so difficult to achieve. The conversation moves beyond surface-level symptoms to examine how factors like childhood trauma, hormone shifts, and even chronic inflammation can shape mental health. Rather than focusing solely on medication, the episode highlights the value of personalized treatment, honest conversations, and removing stigma from care that many people need but are afraid to seek.
