Depression and Taking Care of Yourself

So many of you may or may not already know this about me, but I suffer from a serious case of depression, anxiety, and what we are beginning to think is bipolar.

I have struggled with this for many years now, and as I get older I find it harder and harder to deal with certain things, as well as attempting to care for myself.

I know that you only get one life and you have to make the best of it while you have it. So what I have been trying to do is to focus my depressed and anxiety energy into trying to work out, even if it is for 10 or 15 minutes at a time. This is  a lot easier said than done most times, but I find that by forcing myself to do it, even if I don’t want to, that I feel somewhat better afterwards even if I do sleep from the depression.

I hope that no matter how down you are, that you can find some way of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and make strides however small toward your goal.
