DEPRESSION DOESN'T TAKE A HOLIDAY

Stephanie looked like she had it all, but 24 hours a day, seven days a week, she couldn't shake her depression.?

She said, "Sometimes holidays are the worst because I'm supposed to celebrate with friends and family. I feel ashamed that inside, I feel hopeless and lonely."

Stephanie, a talented and accomplished lawyer, suffered with chronic depression.?

Her days were filled with high-stakes cases, demanding clients, and constant pressure to excel.?

From the outside, she appeared to be the epitome of success.?

However, beneath her polished exterior, Stephanie battled with chronic depression.

Her depression seemed to follow her like a persistent shadow.

Stephanie often felt overwhelmed by a deep sense of hopelessness and helplessness despite her professional achievements.?

• No matter how hard she tried to shake it off, the cloud of depression refused to dissipate.
• Stephanie's days were a constant struggle. She recalled how, once a vibrant and energetic lawyer who could face any foe, she now felt drained and fatigued.

• The weight of depression made even the simplest tasks feel insurmountable, leaving her feeling trapped in a cycle of despair.

The discrepancy between her professional success and internal battles only intensified her confusion and self-doubt.

Stephanie Realized She Was Not Alone

One day, Stephanie met with me for a coaching session. She shared her story with me and expressed her desire to find ways to manage her depression and improve her overall well-being.?

We talked about her goals, her challenges, and her strengths. I listened to her with compassion and understanding, and I shared with her my battle with depression.

My Story

I said to Stephanie,?

"I know how you feel. I've been there. The darkness, the hopelessness, the weight of despair is like an anchor dragging you down.?
