Enjoy the little things!!!
Quote From: sweets537my depression comes and goes. For weeks & months I will be great and then one little thing goes wrong and it just sweeps me all the way down. I wonder how on earth can I go from happy and great to depressed and miserable. If you can help me I would be grateful, because I have tried alot of things, other than pills. I have only tried those once and didn't like the affect that I had. I just want to be normal. I just want to not stress out over every little thing in the world. Ijust want to be happy with my life, my family and my accomplishements. I want to enjoy getting out of bed in the morning to a new day and a new start. My mother always says, there are people who are worse off than you. But I can't get passed wallowing in my own pity to look at anyone else's life. I am up for all the help I can get. I just need people who understand me and know where I am coming from. You need a new mind set, that comes with time and practice, I meditate on God's word, I read inspirational books such as Joyce Meyer, anything uplifting. If anything come against me in a negative way, I have learned to just say this too shall pass!!! I tried something and it helped alot, I would designate a time during the day toward the evening is best, but that would be my designated worry time. If anything through out the day started making me stress, I would say I'll worry about this at my designated time, so by the time my designated worry time came, I could only remember so many of those worrisome things, but then I only ponedered on them for a loittle while, and then I'd say, ok, I am only one person, I can't carry the weight of the world on my shoulders, I give this situation to God, and He will handle it, and guess what, It always works out!!! You need to stop worrying all the time, just start thinking positive thoughts and renew the mind with God's word, If you nothing else has worked, what do you have to lose!!! Try it!!! You'll see!!!
