Season 5 Episode 2: NESDAM (Patrick Madsen)
In this episode of Musicians For Mental Health, I had a deeply personal and powerful conversation with Patrick Madsen, known as NESDAM. Patrick bravely opened up about his mental health journey, discussing his struggles with depression, the loss of close friends, and a past suicide attempt. He shared his raw and honest perspective on the regret that followed and how he has worked to move forward, heal, and grow from those experiences.
One of the most meaningful aspects of our discussion was how music became an outlet for his emotions. Patrick spoke about his new album, Find The Truth and how each song became a journal entry of his struggles and victories, capturing moments in time that helped him process his feelings. We also talked about his recent signing with Brian "Head" Welch’s label, XOVR Records, and how this new chapter is shaping his music and message.
This episode is a powerful testament to resilience, self-reflection, and the healing power of music. Patrick’s story is one of pain, perseverance, and ultimately, hope—one that will resonate with anyone who has faced their own battles with mental health. Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions about suicide, loss, and depression—please listen with care.
