Anxiety, Burnout, Depression
In 2017, I realised I was dealing with depression. I first struggled to recognise and accept it. The truth is that I ran away from the obvious for a good amount of time.
My left brain could not compute it. How could I be dealing with depression? I had a good job. I was building a career in academia and had moved abroad alone.
I thought I was mentally tough and I should get on with it. I was a Positive Psychologist after all so there could be no room for depression. Or could it? How self-deceptive we can be.
