Episode 7: Let's talk about depression: What does it really look like?

In this episode I talk about what depression looks like for me. For some, this may be too much information to share, but I think it is important that people understand the reality of depression. I talk about what depression is, how it affects me, and what I do to help myself "build a ladder." Music is one of the ways in which I try to take care of myself and can be one of the steps in my ladder. 

I mentioned @King.kogi near the end. Martina came up with "build a ladder" as a way to help herself and others with mental health.

What is music therapy, and how does it work? (This is one of the best articles that is not a research study, that I have found on music therapy.)
