Depressed states can make us feel like we're constantly fighting against ourselves but we must engage in that fight for ourselves.

Everyone feels depressed, angry or frustrated at times; it’s a crossroads not a dead end.

I don't want to see anyone. I lie in the bedroom with the curtains drawn and nothingness washing over me like a sluggish wave. Whatever is happening to me is my own fault. I have done something wrong, something so huge I can't even see it, something that's drowning me. I am inadequate and stupid, without worth. I might as well be dead.

Be you, be true to your word, don't sell yourself short and don't waste your life worrying.

In each moment you are nurturing or damaging your relationship with yourself.
