Ok chicas, depression is an ugly word so many of us run from. My biggest question is why do we hide from it? For me, maybe because I’m not “supposed” to be depressed. I’m first generation Mexican-American, went to college, got two degrees, have the great “American Dream” job, I work in TV, I have a great husband, two dogs, you know, the list goes on, but some days, that little word creeps up. Sometimes, I actually think I’m not enough. I feel broken because I see other women appear they have life more together. Other days I feel I’m not doing enough to give back to my community. Sometimes it’s just I ate the damn chips and queso with the margarita…. It’s called imposter syndrome. AKA it’s not true!
