In this 18-minunte episode, we delve deep into the consequences of overlooking early symptoms of depression. Join us as we sit down with Sally, a senior citizen who has spent a lifetime battling depression that began in childhood, yet went undiagnosed and unaddressed for years.

As Sally recounts her journey, listeners are taken on a poignant exploration of the silent suffering experienced by many children who struggle with mental health issues. From early signs and symptoms to the challenges of navigating adolescence and adulthood, Sally shares candidly about the profound impact that undiagnosed depression had on her life.

But this episode isn't just about personal reflection; it's a call to action. With heartfelt urgency, Sally urges parents, teachers, and society as a whole to tune in and step in if a child in their life exhibits signs of depression. She highlights the importance of early intervention, destigmatization, and creating supportive environments where children feel safe to express their struggles.
