Just as depression and anxiety don’t look the same in everyone, there’s also no one-size-fits-all treatment when it comes to taking care of depression and anxiety. Each person is unique and responds differently to research-backed interventions. Carl shares his experience with medications and his thoughts on living with depression and anxiety.

![ADHD Tip: Body Doubling
If you have ADHD, body doubling is a simple yet very effective technique to use to counter ADHD distraction and disorganization. Having another person nearby helps to keep you grounded, serves as a model of calmness and focus, and offers positive energy. The body double only needs to be there in the same room, and doesn’t need to be involved with what you are working on, unless you specifically asked for help (I.e., if you are having trouble getting the laundry folded, you could ask for help with that task to get you started with it). Have you tried body doubling? Let us know what works for you when dealing with ADHD. #bodydoubling
[visual ID: Reel in which a white woman acts distracted while trying to work in a messy environment, asks someone to be a body double, and finally focuses on her work; Sharon summarizes body doubling at the end]

![Hearing Privilege in Deaf-Hearing Domestic Violence Relationships
Did you know that hearing privilege can be weaponized into domestic violence in Deaf-hearing relationships? Although this is an all too common type of abuse in Deaf-hearing relationships involving domestic violence, it is often overlooked or minimized.
To recognize Domestic Violence Awareness month, we are sharing this video that includes examples of how abusive hearing partners may take advantage of their hearing privilege to hurt their Deaf partners.
Thank you, Amanda, for bringing attention to this issue.
