You Are Not Alone in the Struggle with Mental Illness with Tommy Dahlborg

We repeat you are not alone! Mental illness can sometimes feel like a lonely place, but an army of individuals who have endured the struggle of managing their mental health who are here to lend a shoulder to learn on Tommy Dahlborg is one of those people. In this episode, Tommy shares his experience of being diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and why it went undiagnosed for so long.

Tommy is also the host of the Strength Thru Vulnerability Podcast, who shares about difficult things on his guest’s heart, much like he does on this podcast. Tommy is here to remind you that you are not alone.
