I wanted to try to illustrate for you what recovery from depression can look like, because I know when you're in depression you can't visualize ever coming out of depression, and you can't even remember what life was like before depression. 💙

The amount of energy you once had is just completely foreign territory. I remember being so exhausted and not being able to think that I could put multiple steps together.💙

I was only cooking today. It's nothing particularly impressive, but when I look at it back through the lens of how difficult it would have been to achieve this, I thought maybe it would be a good example of how, when the energy comes back, you can just do these steps step by step, and it doesn't feel like a massive insurmountable obstacle. 💙

So I hope this helps as an illustration of recovery from depression. 💙
