In this episode of Holding Space, Dr. Christopher Barker revisits his powerful “tug-of-war with depression and anxiety” illustration to unpack what happens when mental health struggles start to pull you in. Using a vivid “pit” metaphor, he shows how some people stop resisting and emotionally throw themselves into their depression or anxiety, losing sight of their values and sense of self. Through a live example with Gabby, Dr. Barker highlights why constant fighting isn’t the answer—but neither is total surrender—and explains how to acknowledge difficult feelings without letting them completely take over your life. This short, reflective episode is perfect for anyone working on their mental health, wanting to feel less overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, and hoping to reconnect with what is truly important instead of getting stuck in endless struggle.
