In this deeply personal and raw first episode of Overcome: A Mental Health Podcast, host Travis White opens up about the traumatic journey that changed his life forever. What started with a sudden seizure in 2009 spiraled into years of unpredictable medical episodes, failed diagnoses, dissociation, and overwhelming mental health struggles.
Travis shares how his seizures led to intense depression, anxiety, and even suicidal thoughts—bringing him to the brink more than once. With vulnerability and honesty, he discusses the pain of lost identity, the stigma of mental illness, the frustration with the healthcare system, and the toll it all took on his relationships, career, and sense of self.
But this story is also one of survival, faith, and healing.
What We Discuss in This Episode:
- The onset of unexplained seizures and years of misdiagnosis
- How depression and anxiety silently took over
- Living with dissociative episodes and suicidal thoughts
- The emotional cost of chronic illness and stigma
- Support systems, faith, and finding the right people
- PNES (Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures) and trauma-informed care
- The power of speaking up and seeking help
- Travis’ acronym for FAITH and what it means in the healing journey
This episode sets the tone for what Overcome is all about—real stories from real people who have endured darkness and fought their way back. Travis invites listeners to share their own stories, offering a safe space for connection, healing, and ending the stigma around mental health.
