Depression and Sobriety: Rob and Seth's Journey to Mental Wellness

As much as I thought I knew I was doing right was just making me sick, it was making everything worse.
What happens when two men open up about their struggles with depression and the path they took to find mental peace? In this episode of 'Sober Talk w/ Rob', host Rob Benavidez sits down with Seth Bunton, founder of the Former Fat Dad Podcast, for an honest conversation about their battles with depression. They dive into how this heavy cloud affected them both mentally and physically, from sleepless nights to constant fatigue.
But this isn't just a story of struggle; it's one of triumph through sobriety and self-care. Rob and Seth share how creating routines and letting go of toxic habits played crucial roles in their recovery. They highlight the importance of having a solid support system, be it friends, family, or a community of like-minded individuals. Physical activities and gratitude also come up as vital components in their journey to finding purpose and meaning in life.
Rob puts it succinctly: 'Your biggest fight is going to be not quitting on yourself, because you have to believe in what you're doing right now and you have to trust the process'. This episode isn't just for those battling depression; it's for anyone looking to understand the profound impact of mental health on overall well-being and how sobriety can be a powerful tool in achieving balance.
Tune in to hear Rob and Seth's raw and relatable stories, and perhaps find some inspiration for your own journey toward mental wellness.
