[Vowel Lady]

Although our family is very fortunate not to suffer from addiction problems, I get this related newsletter simply because I find it filled with powerful truths. Today's topic had to do with depression relief ideas:

Today's thought from Hazelden is:

Today I will do one thing more than I think I can do.

If I'm too tired or depressed to get out of bed, I will not only get up but also take a shower.

If I don't have the energy to go to work, I will get dressed and drive to the parking lot of my job.

If I just can't face the world, I will walk to the end of the street and back.

I will reach a little further than whatever I believe my limitations to be. Usually, when I take that little extra step, it seems easier than I thought it would, and I feel better too.
