Then when I feel flat or depressed, I break out the list and will do every single thing on it that I possibly can. Usually it helps pull me out. If it doesn't help after about a week or two, in a milder depression, then I reach out to my husband first, to get some perspective, and then usually my doctor after that. But that depends on how bad it is, of course. Hope you feel more like you soon!
I only seem to journal when I'm down, and only write about how bad things are. I'm going to try to shift my journaling to what good things are going on. Even on my worst days, something has gone well. I'll try focusing on those instead. Being able to reread that stuff would be helpful.

Thanks!
