Tanzina Vega, host of public radio's The Takeaway, spoke recently with a clinical psychologist and a psychiatrist about hitting the "pandemic wall" and the difference between demoralization and depression. I realized that demoralization is an appropriate description of what I have been feeling in this political and cultural context where Q-Anon, lies and conspiracy theories are treated as legitimate viewpoints.
I hope you find something of value in listening to this discussion that lasts about 20 minutes.
