Living with Depression

Over the last month, with the help of my therapist and a kick-ass book called 'Self-Compassion' by Kristin Neff, I have learned just how self destructive I truly am. When something goes wrong, I scold and berate myself in the nastiest ways possible, because I am clumsy, dumb, lazy, talentless, a failure and oh man the list goes on. This has been my way all my life, but never once have I stopped to question my aggressive approach.

Now that I have become aware of how I 'talk' to myself, I've been able to take a much gentler approach. I can stop the negative voice and in some cases salvage an otherwise blue day/evening/mood.

It is not easy, but if I can be kind to everybody else, then why not myself?
Try it, forgive yourself and remember that we all make mistakes. And without mistakes, we cannot learn.

Living with Depression
Living with Depression

A collection of thoughts and experiences from living with depression, anxiety and PTSD. It is a personal project that I hope offer some insight into what one or all of these invisible illnesses can do to a person.

It will be a bit gloomy in nature, but there will be good, happy, healing stuff as well.

All characters are fictional.
