What Depression Actually Feels Like And How Ruby Wax Learned To Live With It

Live Well Be Well with Sarah Ann Macklin | Health, Lifestyle, Nutrition

About

This week's Live Well Be Well Moment with Ruby Wax, comedian, author and mental health advocate.

We delve into what depression actually feels like from the inside, the machine guns, the intrusive thoughts, and how mindfulness taught Ruby to create distance from the thoughts that were trying to destroy her.
