From people who came through it

  • โ€œNearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. Sleeping 12 hours and still tired, every single day. This week I went back to my evening class. One day at a time.โ€

    Monika I. ยท been through depression
  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are a few years back. It was pretending at work then collapsing at home and I couldn't see past it. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Bit by bit it comes back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ€

    Meron B. ยท been through depression
  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I keep a list of good days on my phone so I can see them when it is bad. And talk to someone, even if it is just in here.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are two years ago. It was losing interest in football and I couldn't see past it. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back. xโ€
