Sometimes I do not know how to get past my depression. Sure I can view my life and give all kind of reasons why but that does not help me. Somehow I need to chip away at it. I just don’t know where to start. I know things don’t make me happy. It is not possessions that keep me going. The things that are wrong in my life money can’t change. It is hard listening to your ‘”tiny voice” when it is being drowned out by depression. I just don’t know where to start. Somehow I need to figure out what I really have any control of. And start there. Working on at (???) those things. One by one. That is all I can do. And in the process accept the things that are out of my control. I have a plan. I just don’t know when the depression will start to lift. It is just painful enduring it.

Sometimes it helps to have a plan of attack (regarding the realization I had become depressed). Sure I have to now do the “work” but I can chip away at the different reasons I had become depressed. It always helps to have a plan. All I have to do is execute it and with time my depression will lift. My plan is to deal with one thing at a time. I can’t predict when but I can say with certainly, at some point, most of my depression will evaporate. It is the helpless feelings accompanying the depression that indicate I have work to do and this gives me hope. What, also, gives me hope is the realization that every depression will end. It is not forever. I have some control. I have to exert it. Your depression lifts one degree at a time.
