If you are one of the many subscribers to the Peloton exercise/media network, you may already be familiar with Kendall Toole. For many years, she was one of the stars of Peloton, exhorting users to push themselves harder, sweat more, and pursue their goals. In those cases, Kendall was positive, cheerful, always with a smile and kind words. But people are complicated and the truth is that Kendall has faced many mental health issues over the course of her life, including depression, anxiety, OCD, and suicidality. She’s in a better place now (she considers her conditions to be not cured but managed) but in an honest and moving interview, Kendall tells of her brush with suicidal ideation in college, her long stretch of depression that followed, and the words of her father that helped pull her toward a better place. You’re knocked down, he said, but never knocked out.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as <a href="https://maximumfun.org/join/">monthly members of Maximum Fun</a>.Check out our <a href="https://maxfunstore.com/collections/depresh-mode">I’m Glad You’re Here and Depresh Mode merchandise</a> at the brand new merch website <a href="https://maxfunstore.com/">MaxFunStore.com</a>!Hey, remember, you’re part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.
