Depression doesn't disappear when you leave the 9-5. But for these 10 nomads, life on the road changed everything about how they experience it.
In this episode of our Mental Health on the Road series, 10 full-time nomads open up about depression; before van life and after. Some talk about escaping the corporate grind and the pressure of the American Dream. Others share how grief and loss followed them onto the road, and how nature became the thing that helped them hold it. All of them found something unexpected: a life with more meaning, more freedom, and more peace than they thought possible.
This isn't a highlight reel. It's real people, real depression, real healing, and real practical tips for anyone navigating mental health while living nomadically.
