À propos de cet audio
How many times have you said “I’m fine” when inside you were anything but? For many of us living with depression, those words are easier than admitting the truth. They protect us from judgment, rejection, or feeling like a burden. But they also keep us stuck in silence.
In this episode, we talk about what “I’m fine” really means for both women and men, how it shows up in everyday life, and why it’s so dangerous to keep wearing the mask.
Depression doesn’t disappear when the conversation ends, it lingers, waiting in the quiet.
In this episode you’ll discover:
• Why “I’m fine” is really code for “I don’t feel safe enough to tell the truth”
• How silence teaches us to devalue our own emotions
• The shadow side: how pretending erodes self-worth over time
• Two powerful steps to begin breaking the silence, starting with yourself
You don’t have to broadcast your pain to everyone. But you do need a safe space to stop pretending. Depression loses power when it’s met with honesty and connection instead of secrecy.
