Depression. It's a silent killer.

A lot has happened this month and some old wounds have reopened and past thoughts have been coming faster than I can deal with them. Its like a dam has burst and I am drowning. Each day I wonder if it is the day that I give in and finally lose the battle.
Breathe and take it a day at a time. Sometimes, when I am deep in the dark, it’s one hour at a time. Call someone you trust, post here or DM with someone who gets it. Take a walk or do something that gives you relief.
You are not alone.
 
The hardest part of depression is often the feeling that you’re alone, not worth the effort of reaching out and a burden on others. Understanding that your loved ones want you in their lives but don’t always know what you’re going through is a hard thing to do. It’s hard to be the one to reach out first but sometimes it’s what has to be done to make it to your next day.

Be easy on yourself.
Love you.
 
I might be done here today. I’ll know more later. The owners had complications and asked me to stay longer. I’m looking forward to getting back to my own space again.
Have the best day you can.
Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
I have worked my share of soul sucking jobs because I had to until I could find something else. I am thankful that I am in a situation now where I don’t have to do that though that means I have to forgo many things that others consider necessities. Running water and electricity being two of them.
Find the things that give you relief. It feeds your soul instead of sucking it dry.

Be easy on yourself.
Love you.
 
Going to Yakima today to meet up with some people I’m in a group with. Getting out of the house and getting face to face with the people you chat with is important. Having a little solidarity helps, at least for me, keep the dark at bay.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
