The Perils of Unchecked Stress

from Finding Contentment · host The American Institute of Stress

In this episode of Finding Contentment, host Will Heckman and special guest Eric Kussin talk about Eric's journey from a severe bout of PTSD, along with symptoms of anxiety and depression.

During his battle, Eric was pumped with over 50 combinations of psychotropic drugs, 22 sessions of TMS therapy, and 12 sessions of ECT “shock therapy“ only to find himself worse off with each passing treatment. Eric Kussin Eric Kussin is a 20-year professional sports executive. After five years with the NBA League Office, he rose to the ranks with the expansion Chicago Sky, and Phoenix Suns.
