Listen "Dr. Michelle Bengtson | Battling Depression, 206"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Michelle Bengtson and Amber discuss her journey with depression, the role Scripture played in her healing, the impact social media exposure has on our mental health, and the difference between feeling depressed and clinically depression.
Questions Discussed During Battling Depression:
You are a Neuropsychologist and you have walked through depression. When did depression first become a part of your story and what did treatment look like for you early on?
Do you think that the goal of treatment for depression should be complete healing?
When you talk about the spiritual dimension of depression, you say believing lies is a part of that. Share a few of the common lies that accompany depression, their impact on our brain, and practices we use to replace the lies with truth.
Do you feel like depression is happening more and more in our world today?
What are contributing factors in our daily life in the Western world, with the way our society has developed, that you see as particularly affecting people’s susceptibility to depression?
How would you describe the difference between feeling down vs. clinical depression where I need to seek professional help?
If someone is listening and your answer was confirmation that they are indeed depressed, what would you like to say to them in closing?
