At my lowest point, when I had severe depression after childbirth, I totally lost myself. I had to learn to live, like a person after long bedstay needs to learn to walk. Several years of therapy have helped to get my life back. It's not the same as before, but I have been able to learn to walk. It does not matter that I limp. I fight for every day. If I had been healthy, I would have worked overtime, looked for career chalanges, been more outgoing etc., but I have to keep stable, watch my health, avoid stressful jobs etc.
