Kelsey Darragh Lives Out Loud

Comedian, vlogger, author and podcast host Kelsey Darragh keeps a
running inventory of the mental health challenges she’s faced and
continues to deal with. There are a lot. But panic disorder,
depression, and anxiety tend to be her big three. And she doesn’t
have them all under  control all the time because, well,
that’s not how it works. But she’s found that by talking about
them and writing about them for herself and an audience, she can
make a lot of progress and help people out. Kelsey had figured
that comedy was going to be her path, somewhere along the Amy
Schumer or Amy Poehler route, but when she started having the
mental health conversations no one else was having, a new path
was illuminated for her and one that she’s happy to be on.
