D'aww thanks! I hope it made your day a little brighter
When it all boils down to it the only answers in the world really come from ourselves. And so keeping your spirit alive with hope is often the only thing we can do to hold on.

Thanks! I was a bit worried since it's actually quite a long post if anyone would be able to actually read it haha.
I'm glad it resonated with you! The running in the darkness part is probably my favorite because I often feel like I have no idea where I'm going and if there will be any light at the end. But, well, the imagination is a powerful thing and here I am lol.

I am trying to find that spark of hope once again. I had totally lost it these last two years. Slowly I am regaining some hope that I can do something about this after having tried everything. I think these forums have played a large part in that.

It's really frustrating how depression evolved to keep you empty. I know on the week to week basis my entire mindset shifts and it's just a constant battle. Hope is often hard to find but I'm glad you're finding PC as a useful tool in getting better

Hope goes and come, that isn't a thing you can't keep everyday...but the feeling you don't have to quit it keeps with you.
It's sad that you once got so low in your life, but is beautifull you lift yourself with bravery.
It must be a special date, so happy one year birthday (a late one)!
Just wanna say, by the way, that I created 3 or 4 blogs and didn't receive a visit... :P

Ahhh thank you. I will tell you it's not bravery in the moment no matter what it seems. It was more of a desperation that I felt as though I had hit rock bottom and even though I was ready to go I still hung on to little things and dragged myself through it. In the end I kept going for myself because I wanted to find something better than I had. Thanks! In some ways I'm sad it's already been a year and I feel like I haven't improved that much but I'm also glad that I've passed my first year anniversary! Also, haha the blog I had I'm pretty sure no one ever looked at which is a good thing :P I would visit your blog though!!

I'm glad you found hope in this
To be honest I was going through a pretty rough week and apparently my previous self had hope that I forgot about so it was really good for me to remember as well
There will always be hope while we are still here.
