I am angry that I don't see much of the light at the end of tunnel. Or I do see too much light the on coming train. I am hoping this cycle ends soon I have had enough. My meds have been increased fingers crossed the depression will lift.
Definitely give it a try especially when you are in a really bad place. I just started bawling and was overwhelmed and then I started talking to myself. It was a true comfort that I would have given to someone else if they were sitting in front of me opening up about their struggle. Sometimes we just need a good cry and be kind to ourselves. I hope your meds start working for you. Hugs.
