I'm not depressed at the moment but I feel it trying to rear it's ugly head. I've been feeling off all day at work and I ordered togo for dinner even though I should be eating at home. Yet, I feel down so I opened the curtains in my bedroom to let the light shine in. We'll see. Fighting depression is so hard!

Think it will help with opening the curtains for sure.
Remember you are a few how’s working, I say sometimes what the heck how wants to go home and after working all day. Relax just remember going for a walk helps. It has helped me.

Thanks to both of you! I want to ride my bike this weekend since it’ll be nice so hopefully that’ll help as well.

You should try to see some positive videos on youtube or try to have a look at all the positive things happening in your life. Love yourself is the most important thing you can do. Everything depends on your mindset change it and then see the positive and happy colours of life will show you.

It is so hard. But you are one step ahead of it by recognizing the symptoms and taking some action. I know so many of us need some sun to help our bodies starving from vitamin D recently. I pray you will start feeling better. -Rachel
