Changes

Its funny how things can change and do so quickly, yesterday I had bad toothache and wasn't looking forward to today and tomorrow being spent in pain till I could contact my dentist. But today the pain has gradually eased.

Similar things sometimes happen with my depression, just when I think things are at their worse and am wondering why I continue to fight, and then I turn and can once again see the light at the end of the darkness.  I have had this happen before but it can be hard to remember when I  am surrounded by the darkness of the depression with the added layer of confusion from the anxieties.

I am trying to help someone with depression come to terms with it and as a result I have come to realise several  things about myself. That I can only live my life and that I have to live it for myself. I am not talking about becoming selfish but instead of being concerned with myself, and to stop making decisions based on what I think other people are going to think about me.
