Feeling powerless may be a strong emotion, but feelings are not necessarily facts!
They are daunting if I think I have to do them all at once.
I have to be willing to take baby steps!
If I look back at my life, I have had more difficult things happen, and I got through it!
You can do it, if you are willing to take the first step!
Please don’t give up!

I live with the same things including depression. I pray and even talk to myself, because I know talking to a counsel or some other stranger isn't for me. I refuse to take another pill, so I will handle my depression my way. I love music and when I can remember I will listen to the music which I like on YouTube or sing off tune to songs which I barely know the words to. I am planning to open an olde fashion ice cream shoppe. I have problems with the financial end, but it doesn't hurt to plan it. I take webinar courses on various things. I am a Corporate Travel Agent, but I watch webinars on leisure travel and I am starting an independent travel agency. I am staying busy, so that I don't focus on my depression and the fact that my sister died on me. Her death and becoming disabled where I can't walk or drive is the cause of my depression. I am dealing with it the best I can.
