Scary Emotions! 💙

One of the problems at the core of depression is that we don't want to feel our emotions, specifically our vulnerable emotions, so emotions like embarrassment or loneliness or disappointment or inadequacy, and we shut down those feelings and emotions. 💙

We're left with our thoughts, and being left with your thoughts can be scary especially when they're prone to negativity, and everyone's thoughts are prone to negativity. 💙

The way to unwind this is very very slowly, using a titration and only doing what you feel comfortable with when you feel comfortable to do it. Start to feel and express kindness and compassion towards yourself and towards other people.💙

And that will build a sense of safety inside you. And from that place of safety, you can feel the more vulnerable emotions that we discussed earlier. And over time, that will help to unravel the problem that is depression. 💙
