You have won the battle against Depression. You go to bed with the intention of sleeping and waking up in the morning. You don’t spend hours in the dark with tears rolling down your cheeks thinking about ways to separate your soul from the body. You got rid of all the razor blades and your wrists are recovering. You spend time with your loved ones and realize how your presence lights up their faces. They laugh at your jokes and you notice how they love having you around.

The other day while doing shopping, you found a book by your favorite author, bought it and took it home. Each time u promise to read only one page before bed, you end up getting lost in it, by the time you come back to reality it’s two hours later and your heart is content with joy.

You go out with your friends and your favorite beverage has a new product, you try it out and love it. Your favorite brand has released new music and you can’t wait to go to their live concert for the launch. You look back and realize that you’ve made it past the darkness. You’ve won your battle against Depression.
