Just because you carry the load well doesn’t mean it’s not heavy baddie. Too many Black women and women of color are disregarded in the clinical and social conversation on depression until something tragic happens. This episode leans into the shadows of what ‘high-functioning’ depression is, signs, and resources to help you or someone you love.
Through this episode, you’ll learn:
What ‘high-functioning’ depression is and how it’s different than sadness
The way ‘high-functioning’ depression shows up specifically in Black women and signs it’s time to ask for help
Resources and community & self care tools available to you or someone you love
