The depressions are weird and scary and sometimes seem like they're out of nowhere.

But with therapy especially, you can learn so many tools to get through them. This group is a tool, talking yourself through it, trying to figure out what brought it on can busy your mind while you're in it. I have to tell myself about how I know it will pass, because it always does eventually, and then the next mood comes along. And my other best tool during depression is self nurturing, usually cuddled in bed with big pillows and blankets and favorite movies or music. Just figuring it out as we go along.
