Overcoming Depression & Suicidal Thoughts | Dr Perry Crofts
Today I am joined by Dr Perry Crofts, who provides a very honest and raw depiction of life with depression, and the story of how he went from doctor to patient and back again.He details his darkest moment, the destructive internal monologue, and low perceptions of self.However, he then explains the journey he undertook to overcome it…. detailing the necessary changes he made - such as adapting his work routine, prioritizing self-care, seeking professional support, and speaking up. He also talks about the strategies and mechanisms which he has now implemented to facilitate positive mental health - going into detail about mindfulness, meditation, adapting his relationship with exercise and prioritizing sleep.And just as pre-warning, there are conversations of suicide in this episode.The Cost Of Caring Book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cost-Caring-Dr-Perry-Crofts/dp/1528992504/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=the+cost+of+caring&qid=1675066490&s=books&sprefix=the+cost+of+ca%2Cstripbooks%2C86&sr=1-1
