The COVID-19 pandemic has upended life as we know it. Everyone is trying to find a sense of normalcy, a sense of stability, and it’s difficult. You are not alone.

This week, I looked through some old writing, and I came across a journal entry that I’d like to share. I want to share it because I believe that it is a fair model of the steps to take when feeling depressed, anxious, low, or whatever challenging feeling you might experience.

Depression is a mixed bag, and so are other mental health challenges. There is no singular answer because everyone needs something different.
