Ep 84: Depression Part 1

We tackled some heavy topics in this week’s episode, namely depression, anger issues, and anxiety. Both Nick and Ben have suffered from some of these mental health issues in the past, some currently, and most likely will again in the future. As men and fathers, tackling your own mental health issues can be difficult. But, tackling them head-on is advice we were given–and in turn pass along to all of you. Check out the full episode for all our thoughts.

One thing you will hear us say on the show–repeatedly–is that if you are suffering, don’t suffer alone. Ask for help. Seek out assistance and guidance. There is always someone you can talk to, even if it doesn’t seem like there is. If you’re at a loss, take a look at MentalHealth.gov to start. If you don’t know where to find a counselor, check with your insurance provider.

Peace, love, and wellness to you all, friends – Nick & Ben
