its just such a weird disease....depression.....I just ebb and flow emotionally, even on the SSRI's....it's more even keel now, but it's still got some cloudy days....and when your on the up swing of this thing we have.....all is right with the world....and you really do enjoy those good days more.

True depression has so many faces to it. I love the feeling all is right in my little space but even that isnt true and its so rare.

me too....I am just glad that I managed to have someone in my life now that understands me....it has made all the difference in the world to have someone who gets my ups and downs..there's still some work in progress.....we have our own stuff to work on of course, that's just life....but I'm able to enjoy life more now, not just because of being understood more....but because I am allowed to have my space when I need it, no questions asked.....I can work through those dark days and know I'm okay, I don't have to make excuses for it....or defend it....or explain it any more....I just am, and I know it's going to be okay.

Hi Starr, I'm trying, not easy. My medication Mirtazapine seems to be helping, but those feelings are still there. You take care πŸ™‚

I hear ya Want2BHappy3! Sometimes I can’t. That simple. I can’t always stop beating myself up. I can’t always stop worrying or overthinking. I’m glad your med is helping some. What kind of feelings do you have if you don’t mind sharing?

Absolutely! I utilize that concept daily! So helpful and true! Thanks πŸ™‚

Awesome! I had to reset in the park today as I was overstimulated. Had to let go off old bad feelings. Moments at a time yes.

That's the key to a lot of things, including forgiving yourself by not thinking about the past. Keep positive, have a great sunday.
