Could really use some words of encouragement. Been struggling with depression and I feel like a numb zombie on autopilot. I really want to take control of my life again and be happy but I can’t see the future for myself🫤. Any tips?

Depression can be a horrible beast to overcome. Sometimes taking little steps can help you feel better. Just sitting outside for a few minutes, drinking some water, and allowing yourself to be in the moment can help. Cleaning up around the house helps too but you need to remember that you don’t have to do everything. You don’t need to completely change your life, but the little steps help

go outside and just sit outside drinking water for like 15 minutes or something and try to do that as often as possible. if you can wander around aimlessly a bit that helps too sometimes. if you’re able to get out of the house, then try to go to social events like small local shows are usually good cuz it’s low effort, cheap, low commitment and you can socialize or not plus if you’re at like a rock or punk show moshing will get your adrenaline up which can kinda shake you out of it for a bit

I do like sitting in the sun. I used to do that every morning last year. I feel weird saying that I have depression cause sometimes I feel like I’m faking it but I did get tested for it but idk how to shake off the feeling.
