While visiting mom and dad on the weekend for my birthday, mom wanted to show me a story that she recorded on the TV.
This story started out with a heavy heart of a teenager who tried to jump off a bridge was saved by a man in a BROWN JACKET.
What triggered me during this story was not the fact this kid kid tried to commit suicide during an anniversary when I wanted to end it all for reasons I won't get into here but what triggered me was the message at the end of the program of when both people involved were asked what their takeaway from this experience, both of them said it gives them HOPE IN LIFE.
HOPE, their message/takeaway was fucking hope!!
Are you kidding me?
Everyone needs positivity in their life, don't get me wrong.
But to have a message to have HOPE THAT SOMEONE IS GOING TO SAVE YOU, is absolutely ridiculous.
You need to take accountability for your results, your feelings and be around people that will support you in a positive way.
That's it.
Not to take away from the reality of depression but from what I have found in this my own experiences once you find alignment in your own values and start creating small wins on a daily basis, moving forward towards your 90 day targets is where you can start gaining traction and depression becomes a thing of the past.
Sit back and relax and listen to TODAY'S TALE FROM THE TRENCH.
