Feeling depression all the time

I been feeling really depressed again. Everything had either out me in tears or I feel really bad. I feel like I falling down a deep dark hole that is spinning out of control. Anyone ever feel like this? What did you do to get out of this depression?

For the past 15 years. Not out of it.

I had painful depression for a long time, & then I got cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I get depressed sometimes, but not clinical depression. CBT gave me a new way of thinking (possitive comebacks to negative self-talk) & I find my way back to feeling thankful for my many blessings. Also, sometimes things are really sad, such as a loss, & we are grieving, so we have to acknowledge our feelings & be kind to ourselves. I hope you find comfort & will feel inspired by something. Hugs & love to you!!

It feels comforting knowing that I am not the only one who feel this way.

I don't think all this sheltering-in-place and not being able to go outside or to favorite places helps a lot either, Buffy.

Maybe I should find the CBT workbook.

It's called "Feeling Good", by David D. Burns, M.D.

That true! I never thought about that myself!

I will have to check that out!
