In my darkest hour I reached for a hand and found a paw shirt

I think it’s important to decipher what is sadness and what is depression. Depression gets tossed around a lot, and sometimes people start diagnosing themselves an illness and actually devaluing the seriousness of such an illness. Depression would result in just…a constant sadness. Sometimes, of no particular reason. It is normal to feel sad or feel grief about losing someone. It takes time to truly deal with it and then, In my darkest hour I reached for a hand and found a paw shirt let it go at the proper time. Grief is a healthy process that we must endure. I would actually be worried if you did not experience any grief. i just lost my mum in Dec and fighting from depression too. I try to exercise at least 5 days a week and get out of the house daily if I can.

Keeping myself busy though mentally I’m still missing her dearly. I still breakdown crying as and when memories of her flashes by, it can be unexpected moments like when I’m jogging or driving. I allow myself to cry out as suppress emotions seems to cause more damages. I feel exercise produces endorphins which helps me to fight depression. I don’t want to do things that will make my mum worry or sad so no alcohol or anything that is going to make my health suffer. Remember we can mourn but do it in a way that not hurting our loved ones. And yes, I also practise meditation and yoga to keep myself calm. Listening to songs always make me cry but it releases my sadness. Hope by sharing these tips can help you somehow. Remember, you are not alone. Let’s do this together.
