Is there anyone here who managed to

I'll be honest, just keep running with your head down and never stop. You'll achieve great things. Then, one day, you'll look back and go "Holy f**k, I could have thrown all of this away!"

I was in a pretty deep hole from like 13-15. It sound basic but the quote that you can always kys later if something goes wrong but try again now really helped me. I had to repeat a class and saw it as new start, I dressed up and tried my best to socialise and find new friends and I found them. I also started to tell myself nice things, to stop myself when I caught myself thinking negative stuff and tell myself nice stuff instead.

For example:
=drops something=
Ugh, I’m so stupid!
No no, this was an accident and you’re not stupid. Everyone makes mistakes and that’s okay, it’s just a plate. Calm down. You’re not a bad human.

Wish you the best <3

One step at a time. Grief and anger and trying to please people drained me for years. It actually helped that I got a break from physical and mental and emotional exhaustion with the new wfh set up. So I stayed away from those that drained me. I tried out new things. I rested.

You won't be sad forever. But to get over that, changes have to be made. I don't thing you can heal in the same set up that makes you depressed. Either change it or change you.

it still comes and goes try this also. and there is more on my white page for ya and early post..

start with mindfullness the last one

Years of trying different meds until I found the right combo nation. Plus education. Learning about my illness trying and experimenting with different therapies until I became an expert on me.

I'm mostly at ease with my depression these days but I still have bad days. I've just come to the conclusion that it's just how I am.

i was going to message you this and i could not .. your setting i guess . its just a little thing i learned .
the depression might seem bad at times. and it will hurt.. just stay firm . and it too will pass and better days will be there. just know which day is bad and know in your heart it will get better over time. you need to study your thoughts and feeling . and learn to control them. i just wish you the best. mark

I've been working on it for a long time.
I'm not there yet, though.

Tits and beer.

Define success.

Mine always creeps back in… but its worth sticking through it for me right now

Cut out some toxic people in my life, went on psych medication, got a new job.
