Struggling with my own mental health
I've never really understood mental health, or those who have had these challenges in the past. So when I've had my own challenges, I've struggled to comprehend what has been happening to me. This episode is hopefully an interesting insight into how I've been feeling over the past few months to hopefully help others who might be going through a similar thing.
Here's some things I talk about:
- Where I've been
- Overworking
- What went wrong
- Why I didn't notice a problem
- Why family and friends are so important
- The supportive indie hacker community
- YouTube videos are hard
- Burnout / depression are real shitty
- My future plans
- How I'm going to get out of this mess
