=== Depression and Therapy ===

3 years ago, Dan stated that he was severely depressed. Having a newborn with new parents was a challenge for him. Specifically, COVID has hit when he was 3 months old and he wasn't able to see anyone or leave the house and it was an awful time for Dan's family. And that's when it took a massive toll in Dan ~~and that's when~~ Dan was severely depressed and in a severely low mood. At one point, he almost didn't make it out as it was getting that bad for him. But luckily, Dan managed to have the strength to go to his doctor and getting it sorted out and also had to find some help as he also took some medication for his depression and he was on it for about a year ad after that he came out the other side and felt pretty good. And after another year has passed, Da started to feel the same thing he had which was a cycle of low moods and finds everything difficult and he was getting another sign of depression again. But luckily, Dan managed to notice the signs before it got really bad as he has been through it before and also he didn't want to go on medication and even if the medicine works, Dan stated that it would plaster over the issue without fixing his mind in which he described it as "thought processes". And recently, Dan mentioned that he finished weekly of therapy and he feels fantastic. His therapy session went through really well through CBT therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). Dan also mentioned that ever since he stopped weekly therapy, he'll still go to therapy but not every week. He said that he would go to therapy once a month or once every two months or just feel whenever he needs it. And Dan soon realized that after all his work with his therapist and managing to overcome the other side and by changing the way he thinks, he felt like a brand new person. Dan then mentioned that he was extremely dubious and negative about therapy since the beginning, but it has completely changed his life. And the reason why Dan mentions this, because it can affect him making videos. So he has to be in the right mood to make videos because it was meant to be performing and enjoying ourselves and Dan didn't feel that enjoyable. But after he was out on the other side and working on himself for 3 years, he feels really good.
