Struggling through the turbulent times of menopause, I found myself retreating from the world, even my husband. It was a challenging period, filled with isolation, depression, and countless sleepless nights. My mom had a similar experience during her menopause phase, and an unexpected ally in her obsession with owls. Join us in this intimate episode where we open up about these personal experiences and explore the hard realities of menopause and depression.
Have you ever experienced the desperation of wanting to seek help but not knowing how? The feeling can be paralyzing. Amanda, my podcast partner, and I share our struggles and our paths to seeking help before hitting rock bottom. Our journey hasn't been an easy one, it's filled with battles against insomnia, anxiety, and the societal pressures intensified by social media. We also pay tribute to Matthew Perry, whose recent passing has served as a stark reminder that mental health struggles are not confined to any gender or status.
The episode culminates with a heartening note on women empowerment and solidarity during trying times. The power of community support cannot be overstated. We explore various avenues of help like telehealth, which allow you to seek support from the comfort of your home. This episode is a testament to the strength and resilience women can harness during difficult periods in life. So sit back, listen in, and join our journey towards understanding and navigating the challenges of menopause and depression.
