Depression/Anxiety is a dark shadow. It doesn’t care for you, for life, and it can’t be ignored. I have found in recovery that acknowledging that shadow behind you, can help disperse it, make it weaker, make living with it easier. Therefore, we must Embrace that shadow. We don’t need to like it, but it needs to be acknowledged or it will rear it’s ugly head, much like a spoiled child. If you ignore it, pretend it’s not there, it will throw a tantrum. It will destroy things, say things that aren’t true, make you feel worthless. Acknowledge your shadow, listen to it, embrace that it is apart of you but know it is not all of you. It’s slow moving and weighed down by negative energy, it will fall behind you and as you gain speed it won’t be able to catch you, and you’ll have a clear feeling of self worth like you’ve never had before.
