New to the App and Looking for Support

Hi! I just downloaded this app and this is my generic "I just downloaded this app" message. Health-wise, I'm a middle-aged man whose depression has been in remission since April 2021 and I've lost 100 pounds since that date. Looking forward to talking with people dealing with similar things in their lives.

Remission! Love success stories. What changes did you make to sustain happier times?

Get this: A huge part was being religious with taking my meds. Who knew that taking my pill every day would help with that lol. Diet and exercise were this missing links. When I made sure to be physically active, the endorphins and dopamine have kept me out of the pit. Also, being very conscious of potential depressive triggers have kept things on an even keel.
