The hidden Faces of Depression
from Orchid Blooms Podcast · host Orchid Brown
Depression doesn’t always look the same, sometimes it’s quiet, high-functioning, or even masked behind a smile. In this episode, Orchid takes a deeper look at the many faces of depression, from functional and seasonal to psychotic depression, and explores how it can show up in ways we don’t always recognize. Drawing from personal reflection and research, she breaks down the signs and symptoms, the importance of professional help, and the boundaries we must keep when supporting others. This conversation is both eye-opening and compassionate, a reminder that while we can hold space for others, we cannot lose ourselves trying to save them. Tune in to learn how awareness, understanding, and boundaries can help us navigate mental health with empathy and strength.
