‘Depression Getaway’ is based on my personal belief that there are things we can do for ourselves even when we are depressed. The strategies I will share I have named ‘Depression Getaways’, because that is what every post can potentially provide for you – a brief getaway from your depression.

Although depression can be immobilizing, there are things we can actually DO that might make a little difference or maybe even a big difference. A lot of little differences could add up to make a BIG difference!

Sometimes I will challenge you to try something that I have presented. Are you up for a challenge? Does it seem kind to challenge someone who is suffering so much and feeling so weak and defeated? Is this not asking the impossible?

No, I don’t think it is. I think that for some of us, these depression getaways may make a difference. From laughing to crying, from resting to running, from dancing and singing to exercising and eating, from writing and creating to feeling and seeing, from tasting and listening, to…well… I could have you so busy you might almost forget you are depressed! Do you think that is possible? Are you willing to give it a try?

How will this blog help you?

You will feel less victimized and more empowered by gaining knowledge about depression.
