Ep. 062 - Medication Mania
Why does medication have to have such complicated sounding names? Tim wants the job of naming medications (along with medication, and natural disaster). Episode 062 focuses on a question submitted by a listener, "What's a good way to support someone who is going through depression?" Where Tim gives his unprofessional 2 cents, with what works and doesn't work for him. We're all different and what may work for one person, may not work for another.
This episode also goes over Tim's apology to his sister, a New Years Resolution check in, Taking a break from the podcast, a returning feeling of Alice in Wonderland Syndrome & a new word he learned, Anhedonia. Do you know what that is, and if so, have you experienced it!?
