I am fortunate in some ways, as I think we all are...so today, despite the depression, I'm counting my blessings and doing what I can to focus on positive thoughts - this is due to my wife telling me yesterday that I am always jumping to catastrophic conclusions...so I'm taking her suggestion to heart. It all stemmed from me lamenting some of the regrets that I've had, like not spending more time with my dad when he was alive. And when I shared that thought with her, she said, so astutely, realize that some day these days will be gone too, so appreciate the time we have right now. It was an important lesson for me. So, positive thoughts - avoiding those thinking errors that I'm prone to (mostly catastrophizing and fortune-telling). And, as always, wishing all of you well in you personal battle with this unwelcome monster.
