Thyroid Talk with Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Show Notes Episode 37; Recorded: 1-25-2025
Mood Disorders and Thyroid Disease
Host: Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Co-host: Dawn Sheffield
I’m Dr. Angela Mazza, D.O., a thyroid, endocrine, and metabolism specialist with a private practice in Central Florida. My goal is to help us live more fulfilling lives by taking control of our health, to feel our best. I do this podcast to provide life-saving education and encourage patients to see a doctor in time to prevent or minimize damage. Here’s some of what we covered today, not necessarily in this order:
· Our thyroid health is closely linked to our mental health;
· Mood disorders are real illnesses--just like diabetes and cancer;
· Depression may not present itself in the way you expect or recognize;
· Our mental health struggles impact others in ways we may not realize;
· Help is available. Everyone deserves mental health and appropriate care;
· Mood disorders are as complex and unique as every individual who has them;
· And best of all we learned that we CAN impact our thyroid health!
