Redefining Family: Coming to Terms with the Impact of My Mental Health Struggles on My Family
Description
Depression and mental health struggles take a toll on family dynamics. After seeing the ways in which my relationship with my family changed throughout my years of mental health struggles, I think it is important to shed light on another perspective. Losing a family member through their afflictions can feel like mourning a death from both sides: the victim and their family members.
In episode 19, I share my family origin story in preparation for episode 20 with Jonathan Wilson, podcast Host and Creator of "Redefining Family."
*I'd like to honor and acknowledge my mom and dad whom selflessly sacrificed to provide me with the greatest opportunities and life lessons throughout my youth which got me to where I am today (and during my running career). My sister, Alyssa, for keeping my spirit alive during my early twenties. I love you.
