How I Rose From A Sunken Place

in dtube •  7 years ago 

I have had the same kind of feelings. And when the new year hit I changed all that. I stopped drinking, started eating better, started working out, started reading more. I have had a really nice turnaround. I think the hardest part for me is the consistency factor. It is hard for me to keep going. My depression has put me in such a deep hole. Now I feel like I am starting to climb my way out. Every morning I wake up put on a pot of coffee, reread my goals and start thinking about what I need to accomplish for the day. I recently got a new job so it is frustrating learning everything, it also takes away from my reading and positive attitude as I have always struggled to comprehend complexities. I am more of a hands-on type of learner. But having to pass a standardized state exam is stressful, to say the least. I try and go for a run when I am feeling stressed and come back to the task at hand a little later. It has helped some but I think the most important thing is to just keep moving forward! Have an awesome week my man!

You have the right mindset. Keep moving forward. You will have off days. Days where you feel like doing nothing and you feel terrible. I have been there too. They key is to try to move forward even if it's just baby steps. I will pray for your recovery friend.

Thanks man, I always hop on here at the beginning of each day and look for your post. Not too many people that I can truly say motivate me. It is nice being part of a community that is growing together as indivuduals.
