I’m been feeling so great and fulfilled the last few weeks, I finally feel like I’m living my life now instead of waiting for it to start. Everything is exciting and new but also doable and my anxieties have all but disappeared. I’m so grateful for the pretty amazing life I have.
I’ve come out of depressive episodes before, this isn’t that. It’s something else and it feels like it’s here to stay because my self-concept is so different and I’m not going to forget how to think of myself in this way. My efforts at improving my mental health finally paid off.
I owe the change mostly to a romantic relationship that blossomed recently but that seems like more the catalyst than the sole reason I feel this way. And it’s true that the reason it’s blossoming now is because of how good I’d already started to feel, so I think it’s really me.
Anyway I’m also grateful for all of you who helped get me through the long period of depression and fog that preceded this, and if you ever need help from me in any way just ask. Trying to spread these good vibes around because being happy is best enjoyed with others.
It’s so weird trying to figure out how to live without worrying about my depression and anxiety. Like what do people DO all day? It’s bizarre to finally be in the position to find out lol.
I guess also the reason I’m tweeting this is because it really helps to hear that it’s possible to get better. I wouldn’t have believed it myself if it hadn’t happened to me.
It only took me 29 years to figure out how to be alive correctly but whatever. Next challenge please.
