So this is me today, about an hour ago. Backstory before this: I made myself get up in the morning, ate breakfast even when my stomach didn't work, got outside to do some sports exercises and yoga. I knew it's not getting better (from saturday when it started again.) when doing yoga I barely kept myself from starting to cry. After that I went for walk with my 8 years old dog Aras. And when I just let him run by himself I just sat down on ground and hugged my knees. Sat there for few minutes in silence and Aras just came to me. When I saw him coming to me I even said sorry to him, that he shouldn't take care of me after those words I just broke down and started crying. Aras just pressed his body more against my legs and just stood there protecting me, waiting for me to be able to stand up and when I was able to do that, he waited for me to get his leash, he got the other end in his mouth snd pulled me to go home...
From it he probably might seem as a therapy dog, but no one ever trsined to be one. He's just my best friend and part of my soul. I think that if he wasn't with me I couldn't get through this by myself. #Depression #CheckInWithMe #gettingthroughthis #Gettingthroughtheday
