To me, this is the key insight - next time you feel down, I hope you remember it!

When we're depressed, it's hard to keep everything (anything) in perspective, but you can always try to do something about your situation because there are always options (whether they are agreeable or not) and the future is changeable. I don't buy the "anything is possible" BS, but there are many more possibilities than we can imagine.

As everyone likes to say around here, live in the moment. I'd note that sometimes living in the moment means working on the future, too - just don't let tomorrow's "possible" eclipse today's "actual."

Glad you're feeling better, Trippin - hope it lasts awhile!
