021 SelfWork: The Ten Traits Of Perfectly Hidden Depression

ByDr. Margaret May 10, 2017March 25, 2020 March 25, 2020


If you’re an expert at hiding emotional pain, and do it almost perfectly, then this episode is likely to speak to you. Dr. Margaret has been researching and writing about a syndrome she calls Perfectly Hidden Depression for three years. Listen in as she outlines the ten major traits of PHD in the detail that wasn’t possible in the earlier episodes on PHD (Episodes 003 and 004), and tells stories from her own practice of what PHD looks and feels like. The email response for today is on panic attacks, and the vital importance of medical doctors and mental health practitioners working together when considering the etiology of a disorder or disease.
Here’s a questionnaire on PHD.

Here’s the link where I tell my story of panic disorder.

You can hear more about depression and many other topics by listening to Dr. Margaret’s podcast, SelfWork with Dr. Margaret Rutherford. Subscribe to this website and receive her weekly blog posts and podcasts, as well as  free downloadable ebook, “Seven Commandments of Good Therapy.”!

My new book entitled Perfectly Hidden Depression will be arriving November 1,2019! Its message is specifically for those with a struggle with strong perfectionism which acts to mask underlying emotional pain. But the self-help techniques described can be used by everyone who chooses to begin to address emotions long hidden away that are clouding and sabotaging your current life. More to come.
