Depression in the Sex Industry
In Bed with Dr Sue - A podcast by In Bed with Dr Sue
Every one of us at one time or another has experienced feelings of intense sadness and apathy. For many people this is a short-lived and temporary situation. But for others those feelings persist and become accompanied by other more acute issues such as feelings of self-loathing, physical pain, severe fatigue and thoughts of suicide just to name a few. Depression effects everyone whether it be through personal experience or by observing or dealing with friends and loved ones who suffer. But do those of us in the sex industry suffer more? There is a school of thought that anyone involved in the adult industry is already damaged in some way. Together with my guest co-host Miss Peyton we'll discuss the signs and symptoms of depression and open the discussion removing the stigma's associated with it. We'll also talk about strategies you can implement to help ease your own symptoms. It's time we open the discussion on depression and mental health in order to remove the blemish and shame associated with it. Have you or someone you know suffered from depression?Do you think being a sex worker makes depression worse?Do you have a story that could help someone listening in? WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
