Episode Synopsis

Happiness and depression might seem like polar opposites, but emotions are more complex than just being on opposite ends of a spectrum. 
Someone struggling with depression doesn’t necessarily feel sad all the time; they might feel numb, empty, or disconnected from things they once enjoyed. And happiness isn’t just the absence of sadness. The discussion centers around ways to understand and nurture a sense of contentment that can exist even when life experiences are not ideal.
