It's taken me over 10 years to get out of a serious depression. I look back though and don't see a victim, I see a survivor. I've been praying lately, and it feels like there is finally some peace around very important things and people in my life. It will always be a struggle but I think I can now soon back off as a mother and let my younger take the reigns. It's unfair that my sons have to struggle much harder than I did with work to get less out of it. I'll be glad when Trudeau isn't prime minister and hopeful that things will be better in Canada. If I look at the whole worlds situation I should count my blessings every day. It's awful what is happening everywhere. I've made a few good friends in the past 2 years and that helps. I have a really good room to rent. I have plans for a future next year, and I think it will work out. I know depression well. I'm sorry for those stuck in it who cant see hope, but there is. At least strive for one small goal and add to it every day. Only do what you know you can do, otherwise you will look at it as a failure.
Hugs to all.
