What or what not to say.....

Hi @Dr.WhoPeggygmail.com,

Thank you so much for sharing your perspective so openly, it really hits home. It’s true that depression isn’t “just in your head,” it’s often felt in the body, in the energy we don’t have, in the joy that doesn’t come back, and in how daily life feels harder than it should. And you're right, there are so many different forms it can take, each with its own weight on our shoulders. Kindness and consideration are something we could all use more of.

To open it up to others:

Have you ever had someone dismiss or downplay the physical symptoms of your depression?

Or has someone said something that helped you feel truly understood ?

Let’s share, your words could really help others who are struggling to explain what they’re feeling.

Take care,
