Mind Matters 2 | EduStory: Sarah's Silence

In this episode of "Mind Matters," we move from theory to lived experience with an "Edustory" titled "Sarah's Silence." We follow the story of a talented graphic designer navigating a high-stakes project at work while battling the invisible burdens of chronic depression and anxiety. Listeners will experience her internal world—the "brain fog," the relentless inner critic, the sheer exhaustion of "masking"—and see how her symptoms are misinterpreted by her well-meaning manager as laziness and a lack of commitment. This story is a powerful, realistic exploration of workplace stigma, the devastating impact of casual comments, and the quiet courage it takes to break the silence and take the first step toward seeking support. It's a must-listen for anyone seeking to build empathy and understand the human side of brain disorders.
