Control is something that we really don't have and at any time in our life, and we try, we try and try and try to control. You know, I just didn't want things to go a certain way. So you know, I really discovered that a lot of the things that I was fighting and trying to control there really was no use to it.
What if letting go of control could actually help you regain it? That's the powerful message author and mental health advocate Darcy Patrick shares in this episode of 'Life Unscripted'. Host Janice Arnoldi sits down with Darcy to discuss his latest book, 'The Big Let Go', and his transformative journey from a 38-year battle with depression to becoming a beacon of hope for others.
Darcy opens up about the challenges he faced, including the tough decision to seek help, which he describes as one of the hardest things he's ever done. Since then, his life has taken a dramatic turn for the better. He now travels around Southern Ontario, speaking to various mental health and addiction organizations, aiming to break the stigma that surrounds these issues.
Through candid conversation, Janice and Darcy explore how relinquishing the illusion of control can lead to genuine healing and improved mental health. They also delve into the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental well-being and the importance of setting healthy boundaries. Darcy's insights are not just for those battling depression but for anyone seeking to understand the profound benefits of letting go.
Tune in to hear an inspiring story that underscores the strength of vulnerability and the power of community support.
