Winter and Mental Health

Winter is upon us! And for those of us with mental illness, or who have a spouse with anxiety, depression, or any other mental illness, this is a tough time of year. We need to fortify ourselves with every tool in our belt to help us get through this time without becoming depressed ourselves. I share some things that work for me, and I also introduce the new patreon account for the podcast at patreon.com/mentalhealthmarriage. You can also find me and friend me on Facebook by searching for Em Kacey, or e-mail me at [email protected].
