When the Strong Friend is Silent: Mental Health and Friendship
That’s My Bestie Podcast with Deonta and Gwen
We all know her. She’s the one who shows up for everyone. The problem solver. The encourager. The one who never seems to need anything. But what happens when the strong friend goes silent?
In this powerful and emotional episode of That’s My Bestie Podcast, Deonta and Gwen open up about the often-ignored connection between mental health and friendship. We’re talking about the silent struggles, the pressure to always be okay, and what it means to truly support your friends when they don’t have the words to ask for help.
From personal stories to real-life lessons, we’re breaking down what it means to hold space for your bestie when life gets heavy—and how to take care of yourself in the process. Because sometimes, the strongest people are the ones fighting silent battles.
Inside this episode:
- Signs your strong friend may be silently struggling
- How mental health shows up in everyday friendship dynamics
- Ways to support your friends without overextending yourself
- Real talk on emotional exhaustion, boundaries & vulnerability
- What it means to be a safe space in friendship
