Nora Super has struggled with depression for over 30 years. In 2023, she attempted to take her life by suicide – and survived – but with a serious disability. Nora talks openly about her mental health journey, her state of mind during a deep depression, and the treatment that works for her. She also talks about the challenges of living with a disability and her recommendations for supporting patients and caregivers.
Key Takeaways:
Electroconvulsive therapy, ECT, works faster and better than medication for severe depression. If you or someone you love has severe depression or treatment resistant depression, ask the psychiatrist about ECT as an alternative treatment.
If someone close to you attempts to take their life, don't blame yourself. It's highly unlikely that you could have done something to prevent it.
Consider buying long -term health insurance, regardless of your current health status. You're not too young. It can help you afford the non-medical care and services you need to navigate a serious illness or the effects of aging.
If you need mental health help or support, Call or text 988; National Suicide Hotline
