Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
ok, so i've noticed while reading my journal entries that my moods go up and down faster than a yo-yo!
But i've decided that this is an amazing thing! Ok so in reality I would like to be happy all the time, but if i'm happy I don't really pay attention to where my life's going, and everyone needs to change in order to grow as a person!
when i'm happy - this is obviously a good thing, I like being happy and bouncy and smily
when i'm sad - I reflect on things
when i'm angry - I have the drive to make a change, it gives me extra energy
when i'm depressed - I get more creative, I write and draw
etc.....
I am the way I am for a reason, and i've decided that emotions are neither good nor bad it's the way you label them that counts! So if I label them all positivly, it doesn't matter how I feel there's always some good in it! If I shut those emotions out and refuse to feel them I loose what they teach me!
what do you guys think?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I've thought about that alot and can understand what hes means, I'd like to get there too one day.
Positive where there seems to be none - interesting idea.
