I have been depressed for a few weeks now. (I've been dealing with depression since middle school, I won't say my age, but I'm no longer in school).
I wasn't sure if how I was feeling was depression, it felt different this time.

Nothing major has happened. (Not that you need a reason to be depressed). Depression just slowly creeped on me. I don't feel suicidal or anything just not wanting to get out of bed. everything I do end up doing feels like a energy drain.

So today, I decided to clean my bathroom finally, clean the kitchen, get started back on my courses, didi yoga and wrote down my finances.

I feel better since I've done all those things. Depression is still there. (Obviously).

I'm basically trying to say, whatever you ended up doing today, is a big deal. Even if it was just sitting in bed instead of laying. Depression isn't a weakness, it's a strength. there's no need to be ashamed of it. Depression totally sucks!! however that doesn't mean you do.

I'm proud of all of you for just doing your best. doing what you can. Be patient, kind and forgiving with yourself. Depression already tried to beat us up as much as possible.

Thanks for reading❤️
