What's the difference between feeling depressed and having depression? And what's the difference between feeling depressed as a Veteran and feeling depressed as a civilian? Nathaniel, Jason, and Donald talk with Steve Hueston, host of The Dogs of War Podcast, to explore the relationship between "holding on" and different forms of depression, and how our culture can get better at addressing depression, supporting people who struggle, and finding connection.

Bridging the Gap:
As discussed during today's show, there are many ways to improve cultural competence with the military, veteran, and family member community. There is free online training through places like Psycharmor, as well as experiential conferences, and then there are volunteer OJT (on-the-job training) opportunities to participate in national veteran-serving organizations like Team Rubicon, The Mission Continues, and Team RWB.
