Bad Day Cookies

Today is a bad day. Not a crisis day where intervention is necessary. Just a bad day. Some days are like that. Don’t even need a reason. But on bad days like this I tend to give up on my coping strategies. I say to myself “what’s the point? I do everything right, eat right, [...]

And so Dipsy Doodling Around Depression was born. The fun continued, new friendships were made and the research went on, and on and on. I [...]

Blogging for Depression, Part 1

wendylove — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 14:07:15 +0000

Blogging is part of my depression coping strategies program. It didn’t start that way. When I was forced to give up my little arts business due to depression, I knew I needed a creative outlet.

Adam and Eve

Last time we chatted about the fact that none of us arrived at our depressive state without a little help. There were and still are contributing factors.

Did You Know Turtles Could Climb? This turtle did not get up on the top of this fence post all by himself! And you didn’t get depressed all by yourself either! I have written this post partly just to use the photo, don’t you love it? My pastor used it awhile ago and I can’t [...]

If you need to own only one book about depression, this could be the book for you! I have read a lot of them and in my opinion, Deborah Serani doesn’t leave out anything important in this treasure titled “Living with Depression”. Dr. Serani is a practicing psychologist who has made herself into an advocate [...]
