How I Cope with Depression | Beginning to Heal |

I have been struggling with depression and self harming thoughts for a very long time, I still struggle with them but these are some of the methods I used to begin the healing process and continue to cope & function normally. These are the changes I made in my life and that you can make & begin to heal yourself.

I know there are so many different struggles going on in the world. Starving malnourished children, people in abusive situations, people having racist acts against them, horrible bills being passed in the White House, the list goes on and on. It can make my own problems seem so unimportant but I know I can't do anything to help anyone if my mental state is unstable. I couldn't get dressed or motivate myself to take a shower or go to school. Now I'm able to do those things with more ease & am seeking different volunteer opportunities to help the homeless, help the LGBTQ community and spend time with young cancer patients. As well as spreading the vegan message. If you have any charities or volunteer organizations you really like leave them down below!

I love you so much, and am so grateful for your existence and feel so lucky to feel all your love. Thank you thank you thank you.

FYI
I worked in retail for a while, everywhere I moved I got a new job within the week & have only last month gotten substantial pay from YouTube ( more than my retail job). I just want to say that money doesn't solve All problems ( though it does take care of basic survival needs), my getting money from youtube doesn't make my past or my journey any less valid. I've also worked in retail or at restaurants my entire life and making youtube videos takes much more time and skill than memorizing a menu or folding clothes. For a while I made much more working full time in retail than posting videos, but i did it because I enjoyed it. And still do! But I have worked hard for what I have, even my current stable ( for the most part) mental state & its nothing to be envious of PLZZ.
