Hi Teresa.

Are you taking any meds for depression?

 

I used to have seasonal depression for most of my life and I made it go away as much as I could just look at the nice part of it. Its just water you know? Which crates live and it is quite fun to walk in the rain when it's not too heavy.

 

We can't follow depression, special seasonal one, because it's an illusion it serves no one.

Think about it, look at what you like in fall and winter, I'm sure you can turn it around. Thoughts popping out of your mind, they aren't real unless you let them be real. That's depressive thought we can always change it. I wouldn't say the same when we are really depressed and our brain is chemically imbalance.

 

For me, it has nothing to do with the lack of sunlight, but the association I made with what I saw in these 2 seasons, and after finding out what was it so negative for me, I change it with new thoughts of comfort and I made my rainy days comfy days. Just relax.

Baby steps... I'm sure, with time, you'll feel better and better.Wink

Sorry Teresa,

Unfortunately we cannot change our replies for some strange reason, so this is what I meant:

 

"Which creates life and it is quite fun to walk in the rain when it's not too heavy."

Hello there, yes I am taking medication for bi-polar and depression.  I just get bored often,

I spend most my time alone.  And I left a bad relationship and I am starting over.

I am staying with my 2 sons in their house, until I can get into low income housing

which might be 3 months or so.  I will try to stay positive, life will get better.

I like listening to Shania Twain video on Utube, ithe song is called UP UP UP!

Listen to it, it always helps me feel better.  Teresa

I am 64 and no friends.  I joined a church but am too shy(scared?) to go to anything.  Do you live on the East Coast?  I am bipolar also.
