Change can be hard. It can be frustrating. It can feel lonely. For much of my life I felt exhausted by work I hadn’t even yet done…I felt like the road ahead of me was impossible. I have no doubt that those feelings contributed to depression & isolation.
I could absolutely still choose that perspective. I could choose to upset myself by fixating on what I don’t yet have, on how far I have to go, on the gap between where I am and where I want to be and the work I’ll have to do to change.
Fortunately, I choose a dramatically different perspective and my new perspective makes change dramatically easier and prevents me from experiencing depressive symptoms.
Like many of you, I’ve been moved by the recent high profile celebrity suicides. In today’s episode, I’m talking about pleasure, pain, joy and depression. Even if depression isn’t something you’re struggling with, this episode might help you help someone you love.
I hope you’ll listen.
If you or someone you know needs assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to the suicide prevention hotline. More information can be found here.
