The past 3 or four months my therapist has been trying to teach me to cope with my cycles of depression. I sat down and wrote out what we went over in session. This is specific to me. This present cycle is very bad. I am trying all that she has taught me and so far I am not suicidal. I am very depressed but getting through it. This is my journal on getting through depression. Maybe it might help someone to put together a list of things that make them feel better. I try to do at least 3 a day. Hope this helps someone.
