RE: Why should I embrace the chains of this adversity?
So much of this post touched me - I suffer from depression most days. I have learned how to cope with it. I have learned that it is a tool not just something to trip on. It tells me what I do not want and it makes me aware of what I do want. Depression has done a lot for me and I know that is a taboo thing to say but I doubt I would be the person I am today without it. I like to think I am a-ok, so the building process even though it involved depression created a solid foundation for my inner self to build off of.
That is what I tell myself anyways ha ha
You are exactly right!! For the longest time, I had wished to never have depression or anxiety. I now embrace because I understand that it's who I am. There are others in a much darker place than me and I feel like it's my purpose in life to encourage them out of their dark times.
