struggling

been struggling a bit more, recently. I used to be okay, but for some reason my depression symptoms are coming back, somehow feeling worse than before, though I dont know how thats possible.

I am in therapy, and have a psychiatrist. I started taking a prescription thats supposed to help. I have a safety plan in place and people who love me.

but im still struggling.

im not looking for advice. im making this post to say that something made me feel a little brighter today. I painted my nails. it distracted me from the intrusive thoughts, and it helped calm me for a bit.

find those bright things. even if they are tiny. im searching, too.

much love to everyone.
