S6 Ep. 1 / Christine Chappell: Help When Depression Overwhelms You as a Mom

You don’t have to suffer perfectly.

LISTEN NOW


For those of you who enjoy videos, here is an unedited video of Episode 1…

 

Note: This episode is particularly one mother sharing her story, but this episode will not merely benefit moms. We think the principles we talk about apply to anyone whose world has been turned upside down and is facing depression. We hope you enjoy…

Season six of Conversational Counseling is all about equipping you with specific knowledge and skills from special guests who have unique experience and expertise to help with harder issues you might encounter.

Sharing about depression is vulnerable, especially when it involves being put in a mental institution not once, but twice… Christine Chappell so compassionately and bravely shares her story of facing depression hoping to remove the stigma. Hoping to help us all walk with compassion with others as long as it takes for us to know that darkness doesn’t have the last say… No matter how long it takes.

Christine also shares some really helpful insight to help us understand what is a common struggle verses what is a serious struggle that is dangerous.

We hope you feel relief as you realize that you do not have to bear the burden of trying to suffer in this broken world perfectly. And we hope that we all are encouraged to be a manifestation of Jesus in the flesh to those around us.
