It can sometimes feel isolating when you're struggling. Even with loving family and friends, or online support groups, sometimes you need a different kind of connection—one that offers support without the added pressure of social interaction. You might crave a space where you can simply express yourself without judgment or expectation.
Our listeners offer that unique form of support through active listening. They provide a safe, confidential space where you can share your feelings and experiences, and be truly heard. Active listening can be incredibly helpful for processing the difficult emotions that come with depression. It's a way to untangle your thoughts and feelings, and begin to find clarity and a sense of relief.
