As a psychiatrist with 30+ years of experience, I’ve heard it time and again:
“I didn’t know it could be Depression.”
“I lost interest, but I pushed through.”
“Good grades, sports captain, volunteer… nobody suspected.”
“Suicidal thoughts crept in.”
“I thought everyone felt that way.”
⏰️ It’s time to shift the conversation
Depression is NOT just about feelings
🧡
It really is about changes in thinking . 💭
📍Appearance doesn’t always reflect inner turmoil.
*Timely intervention = hope ÷ reduced risk of suicide.
👄So how about asking
How's your thinking today❓Not only
How do you feel❓
🙏🏾Let’s change the narrative together!
It may save a life🙂
