  1. this is one of the BEST. and most (accurately) INFORMATIVE. POSTS. on depression I have read in a LONG. LONG. TIME.
    THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
    I love the analogy you use of “a short time thing, or a life sentence” to differentiate between the two! I always have a hard time with that. I also really liked what you said about simply accepting it is a part of you, but not letting it DEFINE you… I’m bad at that lol but need to get better.
    And Thank You for this statement: “There is nothing wrong with taking medication for depression, itโ€™s an illness you need to treat…Your brain has a chemical imbalance and it needs help to sort it out.” I appreciate that.
    I appreciate this entire post. Full of great stuff, but not condemnation. HELPFUL suggestions. ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. I love that you included exercise in helping with depression. Exercise is one of the best things you can do to make you feel better. I myself I’m terrible at making myself actually do it, but I make sure I get my kids out to exercise almost everyday, and their moods are way better from it. I also hope they will continue it through their lives, and help them combat depression and anxiety in their lives. Great post thanks for sharing this.
