I know that most of us who are depression survivors sometimes have a very very low self-esteem because we see ourselves thru depression and problems and we think people look down on us. But I can not express how much I appreciate to have suffered depression and enxiety. Because of suffering from depression I have learnt to detect it, I know how my thoughts have impacted my life decisions which led to depression and enxiety. From now I guide my thoughts and force them to be positive as much as possible because if I allow neg thoughts I will suffer depression again. Even though I appreciate depression, I don't want to go back to that state of feeling like a loser. The beautiful thing about being at your lowest is that there is no way to go but up. The tools I have used to stay away from depression are the tools I have decided to use everyday of my life. We all have differen tools we have used to survive but we depression survivors are forced to have positive thoughts and this is a common tool we all use. For me, it might be breathing exercise and positive thoughts. Someone else might have family support and having positive thoughts whatever the case, we are to stick with our tools to stay afloat.
Thank you depression survivors, you have been my inspiration. I will never leave this group because I found it when I needed the most and it has a special place in my heart.... Good Morning my beloved.
