I try to live in the moment. When I am feeling good, I do not worry about when the crash will come, even though I know it will. I just enjoy where I am at. When I am feeling bad, I do not live in the moment. I just try to accept that I am suffering right now but that it will change. It's very hard when I'm in a depression to remember that. What I struggle with most is asking for help. I hate asking for help when I need it. But during my last depressed episode, I decided to get over myself and do it. It was really a life or death situation. And I found a med that actually helped. So, mindfulness is really helpful, as is admitting when you can't do it on your own.
