Happy? Me?

I generally find myself COMPLAINING…this ‘bad talk’ gets out of control when I’m on the depression roller coaster…but I just decided that I needed a break from the ride. So I’m doing the opposite & I’d like to share my (albeit brief) ‘feeling of happiness’ with all of you-maybe ‘it’ will help us until the next coaster. #Depression #opposite #whynot #HangOn

What depression looks like

I picked my daughter up from school when she asks, “why are you all dressed up?” “I’m not,” I replied.

I showered today.

I cringe as I say that today is the second day where I feel good. I don’t feel weighed down by the darkness. The hard part of feeling this way is not knowing how long it will last. But it’s been a long time since I’ve felt so light. #Depression #Anxiety #HangOn #ItGetsBetter #OnedayAtaTime

My depression is real but you can’t see it in an X-ray or blood work. You hope and pray that you don’t end up a statistic, someone who couldn’t get the right meds, the right doctor, the right life. What is normal? Is my normal the same as yours? I think not. I continue to climb this uphill battle. I know not where I’m climbing too. Happiness? Hope? Faith? #breakthestigma #HangOn
