I Was Depressed Lately
Author: siggyI was depressed lately. Depression is not something, necessarily, to stamp out. I was aware depression was something I had to work through. Nothing happens in a vacuum. I knew I could not do this alone. And needed someone’s help to do that. I don’t think my wife could help me. I had to seek the help elsewhere. Someone who was not invested in me personally. Depression is an indicator. There are reasons for every state. I just had to “work” through them.

I always appreciate your honesty about depression. When I lived in NC, the sun seemed to shine constantly, and I found that no matter how difficult life was, I was okay. Sunshine lifted me. In the mountains, there are grey days. I am learning to embrace them…….to see the beauty in the cold, dark clouds. Last night the moon was so bright it lit the hill behind my house……like dusk. Sometimes I just try to love myself through depression. Everything changes, so I must trust that the fog will lift. Thanks for sharing this!!

One thing I know that helps me: my depressions always end.
