## Resource

In this powerful episode of Tackle Talk Men's Health, we sit down with John, a 68-year-old businessman whose journey took a sudden turn when he suffered a heart attack. Although he made a full physical recovery, he found himself facing a more challenging struggle: severe reactive depression, resistant to conventional treatments. Through candid conversation, John shares how he navigated the depths of depression, eventually undergoing psychiatric hospitalization and multiple rounds of electroconvulsive therapy. He reflects on the incredible support he received and how his experience has reshaped his philosophy and outlook on life. If you're interested in exploring the concepts that helped John in his journey, check out the book Ikigai: The JapaneseSecret to a Long and Happy Life, and watch the impactful Black Dog video on YouTube, which sheds light on the realities of depression. And if you or someone you know is struggling, don't hesitate to reach out to Beyond Blue for support.
