Depression is a tricky thing. For some people, it can hit them all
at once, like a paralyzing wave. But for most it just sneaks up on you.
If you’re like me, you have lots of external reasons to be depressed –
raising a challenging child, coming to terms with that child’s
disabilities and what the future might hold, financial strain due to
the need to quit my job to care for my child, the emotional and
financial burden of a lawsuit with the school system…just to name a few.
So, I’ve got lots of reasons to be depressed. But my goofy thought patterns tell me that I can just will myself to be fine. “I’m coping,” I kept telling myself. And I was coping…in a near survival mode…and a nearly numb emotional state. The one thing that was bugging me the most was my inability to concentrate or to multi-task and accomplish all the things I used to be able to accomplish in a day. It was as if I was going in slow motion. And the more I worried about this, the worse it got.
