The past few weeks had been terrible.
Going through life’s struggles is a lot; it is worse when you have no one to talk to. The truth is most times, opening up to someone might only escalate the entire thing because they bring their own energy to the situation.
I had a situation.
It was hard.
The few people I opened up to could not help in providing a solution. I do not blame though. I found myself drifting towards the embers of depression. I feel like depression is like being in a state of despondency. I felt sort of defeated. Helpless.
I needed to open up to someone who would not judge, a person who would empathize with my situation and offer comforting words. Individuals around me take me as ‘the strong one.’ That is far from the truth. I hurt easily so to protect myself, I’ve put up a wall.
HOW I DEALT WITH MY DEPRESSION
Prayer.
God.
I prayed. I opened up my heart to God. I surrendered to his will. It took a couple of prayer sessions to feel the difference in my being and spirit. I unpacked and unburdened all my worries and fears. I cried. It was a lot.
I felt peace last week. I’m in a good place now.
How are you?
Really?
God is a comforter.
He truly is!!!

Depression is never a good state of mind. And to crown it all is what you said that...
That is why it's important to surround oneself with people with similar vibes or energy. Otherwise they just kill your vibes and transfer negative energy into you.
You are right!

Hey Adele,
I’ll keep on inspiring and motivating myself. It’s hard but it has to be done. I love movies too, they are a good distraction.
It’s not simple or easy, right? That’s why I think there are as many ways to handle things as there are people. I am glad to hear you overcame through your own methods.
I’m a mix of work and play at the moment, little too much play, I reflect. Yet, I feel quite close to a balance. I’m well, thank you for asking.
How are you?
I wish I can play as I would want to but I love a good crowd. Lol.
I am getting better, feeling stronger and taking it one day at a time.
