Since I made this podcast, I've explored different aspects of depression and how it has affected me. It hasn't always been a peaceful ride, and it certainly hasn't always been fun, but it's helped me to better understand my mind. While I've made all of these revelations, something has stayed constant that I will never be able to escape entirely; I'm still depressed. Recently, I've thought a lot about what it actually means to be happy, and wondered if I'll ever be able to feel what others define as happiness, or if it will be some modified, duller version that I'll be forced to live until the end of time. In this episode, I talk about how I feel my life is different from those that don't struggle with depression, and how difficult it will be to move forward. --- I am not a doctor, so do not treat this as therapy or medical advice.

I graduated from college in 2017. Since then, I've been laid off once, changed apartments three times, changed out of another job, and now I've moved to an all new city. On top of that, I start a brand new job tomorrow that is in the field that I studied in college where I'll meet all new people, responsibilities and challenges. In this episode, I reflect on everything that's happened to me over the past two years, and how I'm equal parts depressed and excited to see what happens next. --- I am not a doctor, so do not treat this as therapy or medical advice.

This episode is one that I feel is about an obvious topic, but what it means is often less than ideal. What I mean by this is that - even though we grow as people - some of what we have done in the past will come back to bite us. Not everyone that you talk to while struggling with mental health will understand where you're coming from, and they might not even accept an apology if what you've done or said has really affected them. It's an unfortunate truth, but one that I think is important to come to terms with, especially while you grow as a person and learn how to build and maintain relationships. In this episode, I talk about how I've overcome the damaged relationships that I have, and how I've even made efforts to try and repair them. --- I am not a doctor, so do not treat this as therapy or medical advice.

When you graduate college, there only seems to be two choices, career or relationships. After I graduated, I chose relationships and stayed in the town that I went to college in with friends and family that I love. That caused a lot of headache that came in the form of longterm unemployment, followed by a layoff, followed by another bout of longterm unemployment, but I was mostly happy because I was with people that I cared about. That has all changed recently since I moved with Alex to the place that she got her new job. I've moved from those I love to a new state entirely and now I'm starting anew, again looking for a job, but this time in a place that I don't know and with people I'm unfamiliar with. In this episode, I talk about the silver lining that's revealed itself in this new place that's being clouded with unfamiliarity and fear. --- I am not a doctor, so do not treat this as therapy or medical advice.

When the world moves at one million miles per hour, it's easy to let it take you on a ride and go with the motions. During this holiday break, I did just that and did my best to enjoy my time as it was happening. I went to see a bunch of family, got plans figured out before the big move that Alex and I are going on (which will have already happened by the time this episode goes live) and packed. While all of this was happening, I didn't have much time to sit back and reflect on how I was feeling throughout and if I was actually happy. In this episode, I talk about what has helped me stay level-headed and calm through this hectic time. --- I am not a doctor, so do not treat this as therapy or medical advice.
