Coping with Depression: Seeking Advice and Support

i’m seeing a therapist and finding things to do that make me happy and doing that a lot. i think that having healthy relationships and boundaries with those around me has helped a lot but i honestly wouldn’t have been able to do it without my therapist.

Honestly sometimes it's harder than others and I don't feel I can do very much. But it helps me to have things I can distract myself with like seeing friends or playing a new game or watching a stimulating tv show. One of the "easiest" things I've started doing recently is putting on a cute outfit, even if it's really basic I feel good having gotten dressed in something I like looking at. Working from home has made it really easy for me to just sit around in what I slept in so it's definitely a challenge some days, but mustering that little bit of energy always results in me feeling good enough to consider doing other things that make me feel better

The Finch app! It helped me so much to make sure I’m taking care of myself
