Stay at Home & Depression

Most people get depressed at one time or another in their lives. I used to get it all the time due to a medical issue (hypothyroid & Pernicious anemia) but mostly I'm okay now.
Mostly.
Our house is smallish, but we were looking for another place. Then this virus put the brakes on everything. My business, my house hunting, my life. One thing it did start up again was that old familiar depression. It's not bad, just frustrating. Being stuck in the house feels like the place is shrinking. I imagine the walls closing in. For someone who battles depression on a long term and daily basis I could imagine this period in time could seem unbearable.

Know anyone who battles depression? It's time to check in on them.

And breathe....

We all need to just relax and breathe. Someday we'll be on the other side of this and that's where we need to focus.

The surest way to get out of a hole is to have a dream. That thing you want to do, places you want to go, and thing you've dreamed of creating. No matter how big or small your dream, there there steps you can do now to move you toward that goal.

Today I will trim the tree in the back yard that blocks the light.
Today I will paint a picture.
Today I will sew some masks.
Today I will write a newsletter for my biz.
Today I will....

What will you do today? Make a list no matter how big or small the tasks. Make that list and get stuff done.

And call that friend...
