Today was a little better. Even though I’m still stressed about money matters, I know they will turn around soon, and my depression doesn’t overwhelm me – it’s just buzzing in the background. I felt restless this morning and couldn’t settle myself enough to do much work, so I went to Starbucks, got some tea and a sandwich and wrote letters. I need to find a nearby park where I can go for walks and meditate when the weather is pleasant. Today is a 6 out of 10.
I think it’s a great idea to find a nearby park. Fresh air and natural surroundings generally do a lot to lift one’s spirits. Hopefully they can at least help mitigate chronic depression.
Go, Moxie!
