I have struggled with anxiety and depression since childhood, and I know I will be facing this most likely for the rest of my life. It's really hard for me to look forward to the future when my day-to-day life is already so hard. I know that I'm not alone in feeling this way but I'm wondering if anyone has any tips for making my outlook of the future not so daunting?

I wish I knew. I lost hope in everything pretty much
The idea that it’s always going to be this way is a depressed thought, and one that you can’t trust. Like most depressed thoughts, it exists to keep you from getting better. If you think it’s hopeless, you stop trying.
But know that there are ways out of this. I’m doing better for the first time in years and wish I could tell myself 6 months ago I’d be where I am now. Keep trying new treatments, and put whatever you have into being better, not doing better.
Not what you're looking for?
