One summer morning last year, I woke up feeling better. Feeling better implies not feeling great and that is when I realized there was some depression lurking in my life.
I took a step back and saw what was going on. I recognized that there were losses and situations I had no control over. There was only one event that I chose, and the others involved people dear to me.
I terminated a lifelong toxic relationship, a gift to myself when I hit a landmark birthday. Even though I chose this path, I grieved the loss of the good parts.

What do you do when you feel your life has gotten out of control? What self care activities do you enjoy?
You can feel low energy, depressed, lonely despite being busy. What is that about? My working theory is you may not have carved time for you in your schedule. It’s important to find the balance between care for others and care for yourself.
