I suffer from depression and it is so intense in winter. Wowy when I read this. This is why my depression is my secret. People can be cruelty without knowing so why give them more?
Wish I could be more confident but trust is hard for me.
Nice job

Well depending on where you live it has been beautiful and it's so true I don't like winters.
I hope this community is helpful in knowing your not alone.

Try to stay positive I find it always helps and remember that you are not alone, many in the community including me to help you if you need us Piglit

Staying positive can be a far stretch but the post on religion confirmed that all is possible. Depression when unmanageable or nothing seems to help robs me of all energy yet my faith never waivers. I should rely on my faith more. Thank you

Hi China. I have always been very positive in my approach to things it has been my survival in many ways. I have had to deal with anxiety from a very young age, depression with me came later in my life. I believe that anyone can have a positive outlook on things, it may seem a far stretch but it's not really. It is only normal if you are feeling depressed not to feel to great about anything really, but as the saying goes if you don't suceed try, try again. It to me is trying to work through the feelings of the down and realizing that eventually you will come back up. Rely on your faith, it has never let me down and I'm sure it won't with you. So nice to talk with you Take care Piglit
