drepession in and out whats wrong with me?

Question

i have been going in and out of depression for a while now, some days are ok but most are depressing, i don`t know what to do.

i have lots of animals and i think thats the only reason i`m still here, i take better care of my animals then i do myself.

i don`t know what to do i really don`t like my life and i have thought about suicde a couple of times but i stay here because of my animals.

any ideas on how to enjoy life more?

thanks

Answer 1

The part of you that takes care of others/animals is a good place to start building with. Nurture it, broaden it, volunteer yourself to the community. The list of charities that need peoples time more dearly than they need money is large and needs to be filled. Seek help with the depression, nothing shameful in it. I have suffered through similar spots and help can be affordable and will increase the quality of your life....some depressions cannot be fought through alone. Finally live for the moment, the smells around you, the beauty of the sky...don't let all the wonderful things that exist around us everyday to go unnoticed by you, to easy to wonder about the future or stare deeply into the past and miss the beautiful moment that is happening right now. Then when you see it more clearly help others notice it as well. Keep the horses brushed and fed until then, and don't neglect yourself. Be well.
