What type of activities do you do with others? List the places you go on a regular basis. First, other than the people I live with, no I do not spend time with others. Second, since i have no friends anymore, no activities. Third, I only go to my doctor's office and Wal-Mart on a regular basis. Imagine putting up with ten pages of this. Im not new to this. This packet has made me do what I've been trying not to do for years, realize how much depression and anxiety has stolen from me. I cried for an hour. I have got to find a way to get my life back. Please God, let me have my life back.

You have to make strong decision and stick to them. God will not help you if you won't yourself. I am talking from my own experience. I went through some serious depression but one day I woke up and told myself, it is enough. You have only one life and live it the best you can. Take the best of it. Don't sit and feel sorry for yourself. You have to do the first move. Not God, not your doctor, not anyone else but YOU. And one more thing, if you are taking some pills, try to stop. Not in one day of course but with time. All you need is a good conversation with yourself and decide what you want. Then tell yourself, I can do it and I will do it. I will not allow depression and anxiety defeat me. I AM MASTER OF MY SOUL, I AM MASTER OF MY MIND. Good luck!
