I feel happy today. I love the blue sky, the breeze, my husband’s smile. But I feel calm so I not going to torture myself with wondering if I’m gonna get manic. I’m just going to enjoy it. I’m not crashing around like a bumble bee in a bottle.
The reason I’m sharing this with you is because I’ve been struggling with mental illness for decades. There have been times when I was so far down the black hole that I thought the only solution was to stop living. I fully understand what it feels like to feel empty and without hope. I know what it’s like to lay in bed crying feeling like a useless worthless worm of a person. Basically I’m trying to tell you that no matter how bad it gets, there is hope. It may take a long time and it may not always last, but there is still hope.

I have started using a light box and I usually get severely depressed in the fall/ early winter and was on antidepressants for over 20 years until I started the light box 8 months ago . Now I’ve been off them for 7 months and now spring is here I’ve had the best moods ever , not perfect as I get down or bored but mostly just optimistic and hopeful and calm as well as feeling good overall. Congrats to you and your health.
