Feeling depressed today

I don't work tomorrow, so that's good. Taking my medications. Just feel depressed. Hope all in here are well.

3. Try not to watch the news, if you can

When I feel depressed, going outside, listening to music, or petting my dog helps.
You’re not alone, if that’s any comfort... take care

7. i'll add to that- sing.

i started taking voice lessons a few months ago. i swear, it lifts me up.
sleep as much as you can stand to. exhaustion and depression can be hard to tell apart.

8. The Calm app

Can you download the Calm app? They talk about emotions being a bit like weather that passes. About the importance of acknowledging the feeling, giving it a label, and imagining that it passes by, as clouds do. Meditation and exercise in addition to medication are a big help.

Sending you positive energy.

9. I'm good.

Wishing you well and sending a virtual hug. Been there many times. Glad you're reaching out, please stay safe.

We have good things on our horizon now. I don't know if that helps, but reaching for little glimmers of hope always helps me.

10. I read something earlier that gave me some comfort.

I hope you find the same from it.


If it's a thought, it can be changed.


Stay strong XanaDUer2.
