It’s been a rough few weeks for me, personally struggling with my mental health and finding hope for the future. What is wrong with me…
currently applying for places to go to help keep me on the right track. I want nothing but to be happy. I have realized I have to find that within myself. Depression is something I can not seem to wrap my head around. When everything is in front of me for the good, I seem to be blind.

One day at a time. Some of the gifts of recovery take time. Keep doing the right thing and the promises will come true. Good luck

Hi Caylie: Don't give up and please keep reaching out.
As you said "it's been a rough few weeks"
Congratulations on sticking it out and hanging in there through those rough times💪🏽
For me, meetings are a good place to go, being around people who get it and who get me. I wish you the best and keep going

Sometimes, you just have to keep swimming. Dog paddling counts. Just keep your head above the water.

Hi Caylie! Keep praying to your higher power! Listening to good uplifting music. And get your body moving! Dance, simple workouts! Something… that really helps me, on top of going to meetings, and talking to others like me. Including talking to those on this app ! You got this ! 
The beginning of sobriety is never easy!! But it does get better. Just keep reaching out, and there are so many of us that are here for you!! You're not alone, and there is nothing wrong with you!! God will see you through it all, Pray to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and He will help you and guide you!! Place all your worries, stresses, and concerns, doubts, fears, depression, anxiety, all your emotions in His hands and trust and believe in Jesus and you will feel better and the struggle will pass!!

CONGRATULATIONS on your 81 days of sobriety. It's 81 days you didn't have.
You've made it past a "rough few weeks". All that is in the past. Currently you're in the right place. You're here with us and you're sober.
What everyone, for the most part, has mentioned before me is pointing you in the right direction.
You're going to be ok. As you continue on in sobriety, hopefully you're working some type of recovery program, you will know a NEW FREEDOM and a NEW HAPPINESS. You will ultimately know how to handle situations that use to baffle you. You will come to the realization that GOD is doing for you what you can't do for yourself.
I've been working in recovery for the past 36+ years. Add me. I know a thing or two.
Love ya sis..
So even after two years I still have bad days, sometimes bad weeks, but I make sure I keep doing what I'm doing and not use everything seems to go back to happy and easy going if I just ride it out, in my active addiction when I was happy sad or anything I would just smoke meth to not feel, today I don't smoke meth and I have to deal with feelings it's crazy!!
I’m sorry that you are going through this. I quit during the Covid lockdown and I searched for ways to get rid of depression. I found a normal work out routine gives a release of endorphins and that helps naturally. Walking in nature and grounding. Growing plants and flowers. I also used podcasts like Ted talks and positive affirmation videos on you tube. These and reading were very effective against depression. I hope that helps. Mansplaining
It gets better i promise hang in there
Man's heart is wicked and will lead us astray. All true divine blessings come from God are pure can't be taken away and leave no scars. You'll never make yourself happy because we are of this world. Surrender all control to God and learn discernment between the evil one and our loving father
Caylie, I feel your pain and I can tell you with confidence that you can absolutely get through this! I had to put my thoughts and feelings aside and just do the actions such as getting to AA/NA/CA meetings daily. Early morning meetings really helped my head! Got me right in the head early before I had time to go dark.
Making my sobriety and mental health my number one priority in life is key. Over finance, romance and even family. Then everything else worked itself out.
I’m here if you want to talk
Sometimes I feel like I’m hanging on to a toothpick in a wind tunnel. However I feel certain that this feeling will improve as long as I don’t use. I see professionals for my depression . It’s a lot sometimes but I have faith that it won’t last forever.
Keep praying!! One day at a time...you got this!!
