24th October Connect Episode 32; Unraveling the Mystery of Depression: Stress vs Depression
Description
Can depression really explain many behaviors but not necessarily excuse them? Unravel this complex query with us on Connect, where we traverse the labyrinth of depression and mental health. Accompanied by our guest, counseling clinical psychologist Linus Oyugi, we shed light on the Congressional for Human Rights' classification of depression as a disability and clarify the blurred lines between stress and depression. We also navigate through Biblical guidance and underscore self-care as an essential tool to manage stress.
Diving deeper into the realm of depression, we grapple with the struggle of understanding those suffering from it and highlight the cardinal role empathy plays. With Linus as our guide, we traverse the various roads to treatment, including prevention strategies, medication, and spiritual care. We also touch on the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Electroconvulsive Therapy for treatment-resistant depression. Finally, we take a step back to view the broader picture of mental health awareness, reinforcing that depression is not always synonymous with visible misery, and addressing the often-ignored issue of postpartum depression. So, join us, as we extend our hand, offering comfort, support, and a reminder that you are not alone.
