76 - Monica Ketchum - How Depression from Accidental Poisoning and Postpartum Differ

Talk Mental Health With Dr. Logan Noone, DO

Monica is a 2nd year medical student who I met playing basketball years ago. She has lived with depression, but in a variety of situations. She attributes her first severe episode of depression after she was accidentally poisoned and spent days in the ICU. She talks about how her mind changed after this trauma. She then discusses her experience with depression after the birth of her second child, and how COVID is making this obstacle all that much more challenging. Monica wants the audience to understand that talking to a therapist doesn't have to be a long term commitment. Monica explains how she benefited from therapy on a schedule that adapted best to her schedule.
