69 - Adopting when you have depression

Adoption, Fostering & Tea: The New Family Social Podcast - A podcast by New Family Social - Wednesdays

Walter has had episodes of depression since his late teens and thought it might be a barrier to adopting. He talks about how he was treated during assessment and how he copes with his mental health issues as a parent. He has been open with his adopted son about his depression and talks about how that openness has been positive for both of them.
