Living With Depression - 4 Simple Meal/Snack Ideas

in depression •  6 years ago  (edited)

Depression is extremely hard to deal and live with, anyone that's lived with it (or seen it first hand) knows this, deeply. That's why I've created a quick list of 4 simple meal and snack ideas for when you really can't face cooking for yourself.

But of course, we gotta eat. Sometimes even just putting something good into our bodies is enough to lift it briefly and the vitamins and minerals definitely won't hurt.

If you're suffering, as always, please see a doctor. Getting help isn't something to be ashamed of. Good luck and I hope the list is okay for you!

Simple Wraps

You can add anything you want into a wrap!

Some spinach, tomatoes, tuna (if you're a fish eater), salad, a little cheese (perhaps Halloumi) and even some avocado - It's all great, quick and healthy.

Top tip - If you cut it up into tiny pieces it becomes less daunting than staring at a giant wad of food.

Bananas, Blueberries & Yogurt. It's that simple, blend it and you're done. Add a bit of honey for that extra sweetness or some chia seeds for more volume.
