Depression

In this 94th episode I discuss the very difficult topic of depression. Sadly, this is a disease that is on the rise with a particular focus on adolescents. We will discuss some US statistics regarding depression, some of the associated symptoms, the neurology and neurochemistry involved, the mainstream pharmaceutical approach, a functional approach, and even some outside the box approaches involving psychedelic assisted therapy and other plant-medicines. This is my longest episode to date but one to hear if you or someone you know suffers with depression and/or anxiety. There is help out there above and beyond what happens in the typical medical experience.
