Dr. Judith Joseph: Struggling in Silence? 5 Ways to Reclaim Your Joy and Overcome Depression
Are you really okay, or have you just become good at pretending? Many of us go through the motions—showing up, performing, and pushing through—while feeling disconnected, drained, and on the edge. If this resonates with you, you’re not alone. In this episode of A Really Good Cry, I talk to Dr. Judith Joseph, a psychiatrist and mental health expert, about high-functioning depression. We dive into why some of the most seemingly “put-together” individuals are struggling in silence, and how suppressing pain can also dull our capacity for joy. We explore how people-pleasing and overachievement often serve as coping mechanisms, and discuss small but impactful changes that can help you reconnect with yourself. Dr. Judith also shares the 5 Vs, a science-based approach to finding balance, processing emotions, and rediscovering joy. If you’ve ever felt like you should be fine but aren’t, this episode is for you.
