    Mind Over Matters W/ Dr. Aimee - Is It Depression or Is It Hormones 07-05-26

    Is It Depression — or Is It Hormones? Why Your Mood, Energy, Sleep, Motivation, and Mental Clarity May Be Telling a Bigger Story Have you ever thought, “I just don’t feel like myself anymore”? Maybe you feel more tired than usual, less motivated, more anxious, more irritable, or emotionally flat. Maybe your sleep has changed, your weight has shifted, your brain feels foggy, or your mood feels harder to manage — even though nothing obvious has changed in your life. Many people are quickly told they may be depressed or anxious. And while depression and anxiety are very real and deserve proper care, sometimes mood symptoms are only one part of a bigger story. On this episode of Mind Over Matters, Dr. Aimee Harris-Newon explores the important connection between mood, hormones, thyroid function, stress, blood sugar, inflammation, perimenopause, menopause, testosterone, and overall brain-body health. You’ll learn why symptoms such as fatigue, low motivation, brain fog, irritability, poor sleep, anxiety, weight gain, low libido, and emotional changes may be connected to underlying hormonal or metabolic imbalances. Dr. Aimee also explains why “normal labs” do not always tell the whole story and why a more complete, whole-person evaluation may be needed when you know something feels off. This show is not about dismissing depression or avoiding mental health treatment. It is about asking better questions. Is this depression? Is it hormones? Is it thyroid? Is it inflammation? Is it chronic stress? Is it poor sleep? Or is it a combination of several factors working together? If you or someone you love has been feeling unlike themselves, this episode will help you understand the body’s signals with more compassion, curiosity, and hope. Tune in to Mind Over Matters with Dr. Aimee Harris-Newon for an empowering conversation about how healing begins when we stop dismissing symptoms and start listening to what the body is trying to tell us.
