Absolutely, I agree about those things are related to the depression. Good you can separate the effects of depression like that. Sometimes I can do that with my obsessive thoughts and just think, there goes my brain again, it's gonna be here a little while, then it's going to go. I sometimes visualize it as a clear ball, and I can see past experiences that haunt me in the ball. But I can push it aside and keep on doing things. That doesn't always work, but was a bit of a breakthrough for me when I found I could.

Also letting go of a toxic relationship was a big help for me. I didn't realize how it was affecting me, and it was extremely hard to cut it off, but there was something in my life I could change to start getting better. You say you want to change your life but it feels overwhelming. Change as in over come your depression, or something about your life, like a hard decision, that you want to change?
