    ]]>     2270 no     Ep 63 Understanding High Functioning Depression and Finding Joy with Dr. Judith Joseph In this episode of Save Yourself, I’m sitting down with my good friend and renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Judith Joseph, for an eye-opening exploration of high functioning depression—a form of depression that often goes unnoticed because those who suffer from it appear to be “doing it all” on the outside.  Dr. Judith shares insights from her research, her new book, “High Functioning,” and candidly opens up about her own experience with this hidden struggle during the pandemic. Together, we unpack the difference between joy and happiness, explain the concept of anhedonia (the loss of pleasure), and discuss how trauma, cultural background, and family history play a role. You’ll also hear about Dr. Judith’s evidence-based “5 Vs Method” to reclaim joy and improve wellbeing and how to differentiate burnout from high functioning depression. Plus, there’s practical advice for parents worried about teens and social media, tips to create joyful habits, and guidance on validating your emotions. Whether you’re feeling “meh” lately or want to support someone who seems outwardly fine but is struggling inside, this episode is packed with compassion, science, and actionable steps for anyone curious about mental health beyond the surface. Tune in for relatable stories, expert strategies, and a fresh perspective on finding happiness—one point of joy at a time.

Dr. Singh is a renowned expert in internal medicine, trained in India, with further specialization in allergy and immunology from the University of Connecticut. Dr. Singh shares his journey from clinical practice to groundbreaking research, explaining the critical role of Urolithin A, a postbiotic derived from pomegranates, in promoting mitophagy— the cellular cleanup process essential for healthy aging. He discusses how only 30-40% of people naturally produce Urolithin A due to gut microbiome differences and the transformative potential of supplementation.
