Tip of the Day 

You've made it through another year! Woo hoo!

It's time for reflections and resolutions. Did you hit any rough patches you weren't sure you could navigate? Did COVID-19 trigger major depression? Are you still hanging on by a thread?

Were there moments of hope and clarity this year when you knew you were coping with your depression productively and were staying mentally healthy? Or moving toward mental health?

What worked? What definitely did not work?

The bottom line is, whether you learned any lessons or not, whether you had a fairly easy time or the worst year of your life, you are still here! You are coping with depression!

And you can do it next year, too. One foot in front of the other. You've got this!
