Hi, I'm J and I'm 24 years old.
Although, after having quit my job and being in my bedroom for several days, I realized that I was going through the strongest depressive episode of my life. However, I think that in recent days things have improved a bit.
Maybe it's the pills or the words of encouragement from my parents, or the sum of these and other things. The fact is that in recent days, I have had more positive thoughts. I realized that the cause of my depression was that I allowed my mind to be full of negative conscious and unconscious thoughts that destroy me inside. Thoughts like "You are worthless" "You are an incapable" "You will never recover, there is no way out". Now, I am trying to cultivate positive and compassionate thoughts in my mind, since I believe that in the same way they can help me generate greater well-being. I hope so. I am very grateful for that, and I really hope to continue recovering. I will work hard and will do my best to achieve it.
On the other hand, I am also trying to cultivate faith / confidence in myself or in something XXX (God, destiny, luck, etc.) so that I can rely on something and have more strength in this fight.
I really hope that all of us who are living this will be able to feel better day by day, and lessen the unjust suffering we experience.
The best and a big hug for everyone!
J
