Consuela'a Page: What Depression is REALLY Like
Manage episode 313812951 series 3209974
Today, she is a licensed clinical social worker, addiction specialist and a certification supervisor. But, she wasn't always that. Once upon a time, she was a woman with a broken heart. A mother who was unable to get up from her bed for over one week. A warrior who finally decided enough is enough and she would get help!
Like me, and many of us who have struggled with suicidal ideatios, she was driving on the road one day and found herself wanting to drive off and end it all... with her children in the car!
She admits to compartmentalizing her feelings and emotions, something many of us do...
She also admits to using "retail therapy" to cope with her circumstances, much like many of us do...
And lastly, just like me, she also has a podcast called: The Daily Calm Project, a podcast that explores literally work.
Find out what she said that brought out the waterworks and how she navigated herself out of it.
