Does anyone remember what it’s like not to be depressed/ have depression? I can’t remember and I’m questioning if I ever have had a period of my life without depression.
some days it's hard to remember times when i was happy because depression tended to blend my days together into one muddy mess. other days it feels like it's all i can think about since i want to go back. it can be challenging
✋Therapist knowledge: Depression erases or blocks times when you've had joy in your life. When my therapist told me this, I was floored. It's like I knew I was happy at times, but I couldn't remember when it happened. Depression wants to be right so it blocks out good memories. Walk through photos or outline events to try and disrupt that.
