As a pediatrician and mother, this interview was hard at times. My guest, another unicorn has suffered the ULTIMATE loss of all, that of a child, and a tiny newborn at that.
He shares his struggles with depression following a preterm delivery, and how support and love from his family, music, meditation, therapy, and blogging saved him from the darkness that followed.
A mortgage company insurance tracker by day, Anthony is on the path of healing through blogging about his son, mental illness and these have led him to even writing a book.
He credits therapy so much for his journey back from the pain of the loss, that he mentions it repeatedly during the interview, and declares he will always use therapy as a means to continue healing.
"Focus on your focus" and "keep pushing" are his favorite quotes, and his favorite book is "think and grow rich"
I absolutely enjoyed speaking with this gentleman, and wish him all the very best. He can be found on FB/IG as Anthony Abrams Jr, and his blog is www.livingalways.org
His book title is "The Voices Behind Mental Health"
As always, thank you for your continued support of this podcast, join us next week for another interesting guest on Suicide Pages.
