“I only found out about my depression in the summer of 2020. Before that, I didn’t even know what was wrong with me,” says Krömer. When he came to the clinic and finally got clarity about his condition, he immediately came out to his friends. “I jumped for joy with gratitude to finally know why I’m so off track.” The certainty was a big step. “I finally knew where to put it.

We’ll see what happens after we stop. I no longer have symptoms.” When asked if he’s afraid of getting depressed again, he always says, “I don’t deal with it again until I do get depressed.
