My therapist told me that
"There's a theory that depression is sometimes the soul's way of rejecting the life you're forcing yourself to live. It's not failure it's misalignment. Your spirit shuts down when you're too far from your purpose, people, or path." And then it all made sense.

Divorce attorney James Sexton said something that hit hard: our society distracts us from the fact that we’re all going to die, because if we really internalized it, we’d stop chasing a lot of the meaningless stuff that keeps the machine running.
After spending time in hospice, he realized the dying don’t talk about their stuff. They talk about the people they loved, the connections, the beautiful and painful moments. Everything else falls away.
There’s a finite number of times you’ll kiss your wife, hug your kids, or tell someone you love them. You don’t know the number, until it’s passed.
That finiteness is what makes it so precious.
@edgaralandough This is ridiculous. Depression is real. This isn’t helpful to someone who is trying to get by everyday. . Who will find all this overwhelming . Anxiety, depression, social isolation & other mental health issues.
You have no idea.
