Hear Me On This!

First of all, this post isn’t about ice cream. But really- look at that.

Yum. Anyway.

This is it, you guys. For so long I’ve been searching who, what, where, how am I? What is the point of my life? Of life in general? Why exist?

But this is it.

I help moms learn to be happy after depression, by finding themselves again.

DO YOU KNOW HOW AMAZING THAT FEELS? Even just writing it?

I want to shout it to the rooftops.

IT’S POSSIBLE TO HEAL!

YOU ARE INCREDIBLE.

EXACTLY AS YOU ARE.

Yes, you, who is over there shaking your head.

And you, who don’t even know if depression is what you have.

And you, who doesn’t even realize that depression IS what it is- you that thinks that it’s just you. You’re just a bad mom. You’re just selfish. You’re just not a good person.

ALL OF YOU.

HEAR ME.

I CAN HELP YOU.

Haha. I love getting dramatic when I’m writing.

But are you really and truly listening to me?

Let me ask you a few questions.

Do you feel like you?

If no, why not? What doesn’t feel right?

Do you have depression?

If you know you do, get help. Even one call, even when your brain is telling you but you probably don’t need it or they probably can’t help you, will get you set straight. If you need more than one call, that’s your next step. If one call is all it took, no harm done. You can quit wondering and worrying.

If you don’t know, do you think you might? What makes you think that?

And again, GET HELP. Call someone, talk to someone, anyone. A professional can give you feedback, give you advice, show you your next step.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

And more than that,

YOU CAN HEAL.

Why wait even one more day? Why stay stuck in the fear, the confusion, the I don’t know land, the depression, the overwhelm, the all of it?

YOU DON’T NEED TO STAY THERE.

Life is so much better on the other side of depression.

You’ve got this.

You’ve SO got this.
