Depression

Life is covered with a veil of darkness.

Somehow, the world has become too difficult to bear with no energy to engage in it.

Days of staying in bed, nights of restlessness and nightmares, and constant fatigue weigh you down.

Your life has become motionless as you isolate and drift away from your work, relationships, and things you used to enjoy.

You might look like you’re doing okay…

But you’re anything but.

The important details of life are either avoided or forgotten.

A fog blurs your mind, so keeping track of the important things you’re supposed to be doing in life is impossible.

Or you’re so depleted that you avoid them altogether.

When you’re terrified that it’ll all fall apart, sometimes anxiety is the only energy keeping you going.

Irritability, crying, and pain…

These are the hallmarks of depression.

The irritability strikes without notice, leaving your loved ones hurt and confused.

The crying becomes a daily experience as the voices inside you become more vicious and attacking.

The physical pain becomes constant; no medication, substance, food, or pleasure-seeking activity makes it go away.

Every solution you try only adds to your downward spiral into misery and hopelessness.

When you’re lost, getting help to find your way is wise.

Continuing down the path you are on will only intensify the pain, hopelessness, thoughts of not living, and unhealthy behaviors that have resulted from trying to make it all go away.

I know you’re hurting. This is real pain.

But waiting for the worst to happen is not the answer. There is a way out for you!

Healthier ways to feel better…

Sharing your pain and dark thoughts isn’t easy, but I will be present with whatever is happening inside you.

We will employ different strategies to reframe your thinking and realign with your emotions. To get out of this pit of despair you’ve been living in, you’ll need to face those tough emotions. I’ll be there every step of the way to help you through.

What you are going through is real and important, but it is not all about who you are.

Depression shrouds your inner vision and perspective so that you can only see it and not the rest of who you are. We can work together to source your feelings while bringing valuable parts of yourself to light. This is how you’ll feel whole, and it’s one of the keys to your healing.

Pivoting into a different perspective will remind you of the strengths and abilities that brought you this far.
