Re: How do you know if you are recovering from depression or not?

Congratulations on getting your research funded @Sahara. That must be a huge weight off your shoulders.
Wow. I love that you have now placed yourself in the number one position and your look after yourself first. That's fantastic.
No we cannot make other peoples happiness our priority. It's not a healthy way to live. The priority has to be our own happiness. Our own contentment.
So great to see you putting yourself first.

Re: How do you know if you are recovering from depression or not?

No, @utopia, I was not healthy at all, before this. I did not believe I had any worth, other than the help I could provide for others.

I think that is why I put so much energy into that ill-fated community project that I was involved in.... I could only be productive and energized if it was in the service of others.... I didn't give myself permission to put all that energy into myself and my own interests.

Now I am absolutely puting 100% energy into my own life.
