Mary,
I've been there- the depression. Therapy helped. My therapist told me that I'm never alone and that helped. I went out and got a few books on tape- Wayne Dyer and some meditation programs. I also started looking into Visualization because when my therapist had told me I'm never alone I felt the need to make that more concrete.
I don't go to church but I am working on spiritual growth and this fit for me. I pictured myself curled up in God's hand before I would go to sleep. Well, for me it wasn't actually a picture so much as a feeling but you get the idea, right?
I have found comfort in this and it is only limited by my imagination.
I'm reading a book by Shakti Gawain right now and I'll share a few things she says:
I often find the most powerful communication with the universe when I am alone, especially out in nature. At such times, the places inside of me that feel empty are filled with the energy of spirit. Here I find a guiding presence that nudges me in the direction I need to go. We are not alone with our problems we can rely on our intuition as if it were a great and wise friend accompanying us on the journey through life-watching out for us, helping us and loving us.
The key to asserting yourself is taking action. I have seen people begin to lose weight or become physically healthier simply by doing something thay have been afraid to do, or expressing some feeling they've suppressed. By continuing to speak and act your truth, you will dissolve blocks, and find your proper weight.
On the lighter side- I had to laugh because the first time I read the blurp about taking action the thing I responded to was eating the right foods- unfortunately I ate them all the same day! So I think of action now as cleaning my house, doing what I need to do to take care of myself, walking etc and seeking support just as you've been.
Mary- I'm glad you posted this. I'm glad you're seeking support. In your post I heard myself and in the answers that came to you I've found comfort.
Today is another day.
((((Hugs)))))
Miss
