Rhett Smith Podcast 65: The Link Between Depression and Anger (or one’s inability to properly express emotion)
In episode 64 (the previous episode) I shared about my more recent, and personal struggle with anger. In that episode I also talk a bit about it’s roots being in depression. I have talked before about the link between depression and anger in some of my writings like What it Means to be a Man. But I thought in this episode I would share a bit more about that link, and about the varying types of depression, treatments, and the reframing of it.
In this episode I explore:
- the link between anger and depression.
- the different types of depression.
- different treatments for depression.
- reframing depression.
