Sometimes I have to be reminded that my feelings don't define me.  My feelings are real but depression doesn't define me.  I am aware of my feelings and try to control them but  I'm only a woman that happens to suffer from depression.  I hurt, I learn, I fall, I get back up and yet I am still thankful for this life, considering the alternative. I have decided to let go of the thoughts and feelings that weaken my soul..  I will remain strong and resilient; less and less will bother me.  AHHH, I choose positive thoughts, actions, and feelings now.

Reading a new book

I just started reading "Get it Done When You're Depressed" by Julie A. Fast and John D. Preston, Psy.D., ABPP.  The cover says 50 Strategies for Keeping Your Life on Track.
 Now I have a definite problem with having no motivation and lack of energy.  I haven't been able to get very far in the book due to lack of motivation.  But I am just gonna make myself read as much as I can tonight.  I sure need all the help I can get.  I will let you all know how things end up.  I am hoping that I learn a lot from the book.  Life is a learning process.

You Matter

I not that there are times I feel so alone.  It is comforting to know that I am not alone in how I feel and that others may feel the same way.  I promise to never give up, I hope you promise too!
