Purpose definitely makes a difference. I think we are not near as resilient as we were when younger. I actually feel like I have PTSD from the depression itself the last five years and the upheaval it has caused.
I should be grateful I am currently doing good and I am safe and my needs are met but I feel battle worn. In my thirties I would just grit my teeth and go back to work and see what happens.
Really I don't have a lot going on just in my head and that is a dangerous place to be. One day at a time and stay in the moment is what I need to do I guess.
Thanks for responding.
