Hopelessness

[BlueAurora]

hey guys. So I’ve just been really struggling with my depression lately and it’s left me feeling very sad and hopeless. I feel like I won’t ever get better and that I’ll be struggling with this the rest of my life and I’ll never get out of this cycle which has led me to want to give up. Does any one else feel like this? Is there anything that’s helped you or someone you know have feelings of hope again or make you want to live?

You know what can help BlueAurora?? Changing your negative thought pattern as

well as never giving up. Thinking that you will never get better, you will be struggling

with this the rest of your life as well as you will never get out of this cycle, will do nothing

but keep you in that negative mode.

After all, what you think is what you get and unless you change the broken record in

your mind, things will stay the same.

I use Meditation each and every day. Upon awakening, mid afternoon and before bed.

Listening to Positive Affirmational Meditation can and will retrain your subconscious

mind to think more clearly. My go to is YouTube. It can't hurt to give it a try. As you

sleep, your subconscious mind will absorb the new thoughts. A retraining/reprogramming

per se. I think you will be quite surprised at the outcome. It's going to be okay.

You are just going to try a new path. We're here to help you xx

[BlueAurora]

thank you. I will try to do some of the things you said. I really appreciate you responding.

Yes, do try anything that'll compel you to take a step forward, even if it's just one step. I really wish for your well-being and will check in on you at a later time, if that's okay.

I agree with everyone's suggestion including prayer. You don't have to belong to a religion to pray. Sometimes in my darkest times I force myself to sit outside for 15 minutes and look at the sky to break the meserism of the lies that the "inner critic " has been telling me.
