Depression is one of the most commonly misunderstood mental health conditions, often confused with unhappiness or temporary sadness. In this episode, Dr. David Gross and Dr. Andrew Rosen break down the differences between normal mood shifts and clinical depression. They explore how depression shows up in daily life, why it can feel like being trapped in a dark pit, and what role both biology and life circumstances play in its onset.
From the impact of negative thinking and the power of cognitive therapy, to the effectiveness of medication and newer treatments, the doctors share how recovery is possible and why hope is essential. Whether you’ve experienced depression yourself or want to better understand it in others, this conversation sheds light on the realities of living with depression and the many pathways to healing.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
