Tip of the Day
Depression feels
like failure, like weakness, like defeat. It feels like a cop out, an
excuse. It feels like a waste of a life that once showed such
promise.
None of that is true, but that's how it feels a good bit of the time.
You may work on overcoming your depression, but there's a part of you that feels like a loser because you're not better yet! Of course, it doesn't work that way, unfortunately. Getting better, whether mentally or physically (or spiritually) takes time and it takes practice.
And, yes, that sucks!
