by joanne szcyrek
We are 3 friends who decided over breakfast, that we could do a podcast! we call ourselves the depressed breakfast club because we meet for brekkie at least once and month and talk about everything under the sun. We all suffer from some form of Mental illness, whether is be depression, anxiety, bipolar and so forth, So this podcast helps us with keeping our minds active and we hope that we entertain you as we go along. When we first started, we were very structured with weekly topics and for the most part, we did stick to them...but we have noticed that we go off topic and end up having more laughs and fun. So, we decided to change the flow, format and road that our podcast was on and we will be doing non topic weekly chats about life and everything under the sun. We Will have guests every now and then to chat with us about whatever it is that hits us that week. maybe a new book? maybe a movie? maybe the idiot who cut you off on the expressway. who knows! What we can tell you is, y
