Dr. Judith Joseph: Childhood Trauma and How to Recognize High-Functioning Depression

Dr. Judith Joseph: Childhood Trauma and How to Recognize High-Functioning Depression

In this raw and revelatory episode of Self-Conscious, we talk about the kind of depression that hides behind a perfect Instagram feed. High-functioning depression doesn't leave you sobbing in bed—it shows up in overachievement, relentless busyness, and emotional numbness. Chrissy sits down with psychiatrist and author Dr. Judith Joseph for a conversation that starts in the mind and ends in the body—with tears, breakthroughs, and healing. In one of the most vulnerable interviews she’s ever done, Chrissy shares a gut-wrenching admission about childhood trauma that changed the course of her life, why she doesn’t trust her own emotions, and what it’s like to raise kids while still healing herself. This isn’t just a discussion—it’s a reckoning. Together, Chrissy and Dr. Judith unpack the science, psychology, and strategies for finally naming the pain and finding your way back to joy.


KEY TAKEAWAYS:


  • Discover the difference between "Big T" and "little t" trauma—and why the small stuff that "shouldn't" hurt still does.
  • Learn the five V's of healing: Validation, Venting, Values, Vitals, and Vision—along with real tools for daily emotional clarity.
  • Reconnect with joy.


This episode contains discussions about trauma, including sexual abuse and emotional neglect. Listener discretion is advised.
