Manage episode 483616850 series 3475432
High-functioning depression often goes unnoticed as people hide their struggles behind busy schedules and impressive achievements. But understanding and addressing these hidden challenges can help you find more joy and live a mentally stronger life.
My guest is Dr. Judith Joseph, a Columbia-trained psychiatrist, clinical assistant professor, and leading voice on high-functioning depression. She is also the author of High Functioning. Some of the things we discuss are:
- The key warning signs of high-functioning depression
- How unresolved emotional trauma can lead to avoidance and overworking as coping mechanisms
- The differences between perfectionism as healthy striving versus harmful overachieving
- Simple, actionable strategies to create small moments of joy throughout the day and why they matter
- The importance of acknowledging your feelings and taking small steps to process and heal
- Strategies that can help you overcome high-functioning depression
