What’s depression got to do with it?

Have you ever heard the story about the bird that cries all night long because it is freezing in the cold of night? It keeps crying “Tommorrow I will make a nest. I will make a nest so I won’t be so cold at night” When the dawn arrives and the sun rises the exhausted bird goes to sleep in the warmth of the sunlight. The bird sleeps all day long until the sun sets again and the bird wakes up cold in the middle of the night. The bird cries out in vain again ”Tommorrow I will make myself a nest to keep me warm” and this cycle continues over and over.

Does this sound a little like you? Do you feel sad and depressed? That is because you are “Depressing”(pushing down) certain feelings. Mabye you are crying because your partner doesn’t show you enough attention. You keep telling yourself tommorrow I will come up with something really fun for us to do so we can spend time together. But then other things get in the way: there’s that TV show and that awesome computer game, got to take care of the kids and chat on the phone and now I am so tired I just want to relax, have a glass of wine and then another and another pretty soon the day has all gone and night begins to descend and coldness of depression starts to creep into your soul and you start to cry that your partner doesn’t show you any attention. Does this sound familiar? It sounds familiar to me because I have been through it.

We have many ways to depress our feelings of unhappiness and lonliness. The easiest are alcohol and drugs others might not seem so obvious. Do you go shopping when you are depressed? That is because advertisers want you believe you will become happy if you buy their product. You have been trapped in this same cycle forever looking outside of yourself to find your joy only to be dissapointed when you find that joy is only fleeting. Have you heard the expression “Break the cycle” or “It’s a vicious cycle” You can end this cycle of negativity you have been trapped in forever. You can end it right now and change your relationships for the better moving forward from this moment in time.
