Tip of the Day
Sadness and depression are different.
I was sad when my cat died. I missed her and her light going out was sad.
Depression is that for months I was overwhelmed with the belief that her death was my fault because I was not good enough.
Allow yourself to feel sadness, grief, loss and disappointment.
But try to keep blame and self-flagellation and self-hatred at bay.
