Thanks. Sorry that you feel that you have only lived half a life, I can relate to what you say about getting stuck and becoming discouraged. I also feel I very easily become discouraged, I donīt dare trying long enough because of my fear of failing.
Iīm happy for you that youīre about to come out of your depression. I do several of those things that you mention, I exercise, I donīt drink, I eat somewhat healthy and by that Iīve kept myself from just lying in bed. I assume thatīs one step in the right direction but I though feel disappointed in life and Iīm also very scared I wonīt ever succeed.

I am writing this to you while trying to come out of a very dark 13 month depression. I have had enough of being depressed! It is time to live. Sometimes you just have to force yourself, and pretend, and also push to do a little more than you ordinarily do.
I am going off Psych Central for awhile because I want to put my depression and anxiety to one side.
I don't know if you have ever heard of this but I recently read that a combination of meditation and aerobic exercise is known to really decrease depression. So I am trying this...with 20 minutes meditation in the morning followed by 30 minutes vigorous aerobic exercise. I never give up.
Eat well, sleep well, don't drink alcohol, meditate, exercise...and be light. Be a light to yourself, Sarah. You can do it. Hygge up!
