In this deeply personal episode, Elaine shares her journey through four years of struggling with depression, shedding light on the often invisible challenges of preserving one’s mental health. She opens up about the emotional battles she faced, the misconceptions surrounding depression, and the resilience she built through adversity.
Living with depression can strip life of its color. It is painful, can feel hopeless, and often leads to deep loneliness. While hearing the stories of others who have faced depression may not magically fix what you’re going through, it can offer reassurance that you are not alone. More importantly, it may provide a sense of understanding and hope.
