Hi Frankie,

Don't be afraid. If you handled it before, you can handle it again. Depression and anxiety can make you stronger.

If therapy helped you in the past, do you think you could make an appointment and talk to the therapist about a maintenance kind of situation?

My depression was always worse in the winter too. I used to get really scared when fall rolled around- hence my username Winterbritt. (my name is brittany)

Winter seems scary, but winter is just a string of individual days. And days are just a string of individual moments. It's much easier to be ok in each moment. My advise would be to make it a habit of reminding yourself, "i'm completely ok in this moment."
