I've been battling with depression for almost 10 years but for 9 of those years they were in silence. Honestly because there weren't any awareness on mental health issues and the stigma attached to it also. I sought help almost a year ago and I've made progress but the set backs are really hard. I just want to be be happy again and the bubbly person I use to be. Lately I've been trying to keep the energy around me positive but I still find times where I'm down and out! So basically I'm reaching out to see if anybody dealing with it and how do you come out of those down moments?
