Wow, I must say these are some great responses. I think there’s an element of truth in each of them. I agree with NeetaT about physical exercise being important – plus being outside in nature on a regular basis. I have struggled with depression on and off (more off than on) for much of my life but I think a lot of positive changes and creativity have come from it so I really wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve become a much better person I think because of making changes as a result of being unhappy with the status quo. I’ve known people that appear perpetually happy and bubbly all the time but their lives are a mess and when you get to know them they are actually falling apart inside. In the end, we’re all just doing the best we can and the universe will unfold as it should.
