Getting out of the pit of depression

I was really depressed partly because I got diagnosed with a movement disorder that makes me walk super slowly but also because I had just given up. Only shifting my mentality completely to the positive has allowed me to get off depression meds (I was taking lexapro). I also did 6 months of counseling and took a good hard look at my life and relationships. I realized that I can only change myself and that other people act the way they do from long ingrained habit not malice. It’s a work in progress but I wake up excited to see what the day will bring.
