EPISODE 95: Health Effects of Depression The Proclivity Podcast

Have you ever felt abnormally sad? Maybe it was after a breakup, a loss of a loved one, or a change of season in your career or work life.  Whether clinically diagnosed or not, you may have dealt with depression or deep sadness that can feel like a weight on your shoulders, making it hard to get through your day.

With depression on the rise, we take a look at the effects that depression can have on the body, including your nervous system, immune system, heart, kidneys, and more.  We also talk about our personal experiences of depression, including what it was like for Emily after the birth of her son and Joel’s current and past experiences that have helped him to find the best every day.
