Looks to be very relevant. I will have to check it out further.

So far I have come up with helping others who also suffer. Very powerful.

All of us by posting on these forums for the whole world to see I am sure is helping others.

Being very open about my disease to others in order to reduce the stigma and increase understanding. I have been doing this for along time but never really acknowledged it had meaning for me.

I used to very active in AA and a huge part of that philosophy is helping the new guy or gal who comes in the door. I feel I need to get back to that. Just can't get myself to go though.

Then there is my 20 year old daughter who I am very close with and she needs me. I am having some issues about my financial state and my inability to help her in that regard. Brings up alot of shame.

Facing and fighting this disease takes alot of courage and resilience in the face of no hope. As Victor Frankyl suggests I guess I can find meaning it that.

I guess being there for my family which I am very close to but I feel like more of a burden then anything. Gonna have to work on that one.

When I am not depressed I have always been very into nature and wild life photography. I have found much meaning and enjoyment in this. I love nothing more than sitting in a blind all by myself being with nature. I wish I could show you guys all my photos. Problem is when depressed I have no desire to even look at my camera.

I could list a lot for when I am not depressed and feeling really good. The challenge is finding them when in a deep depression.
