Gopi On Disclosure
Jun 12th, 2009 by depressedteens
Hey everyone,
How is everything going? I hope everyone is enjoying their summer break even though it’s still a little chilly out here in the Sunny (read sarcastically) Midwest.
On this week’s show, we did a show on disclosure. Emily, Ryan, and I discussed the different questions and concerns we had regarding when to tell someone about your depression or bipolar disorder. Disclosure entails how much information to tell, who to tell, and when to tell. We didn’t have a clear-cut answer for you guys, but WE DID say that you should tell someone who you trust. Telling someone about your problems helps relieve some of the stress you hold in while worrying.
The reason I am talking about disclosure today is this weekend my sister’s friend’s fiancé had a drug problem and the day before his wedding he overdosed on cocaine. When we talk about disclosure, we don’t just limit it to depression and bipolar disorder. You should find someone you trust to disclose any information to. Telling someone your problems helps you; it is all about self-help!
I hope you guys take this into consideration and please let us know about any questions or concerns you may have. Enjoy the rest of the week guys!
Gopi
