There come times in this quest for health when depression has a go at you. It usually starts when a lot of negativity gets into your circle of concern. You have to watch other people's attitudes more closely with this, and if things get too negative in the interchange, maybe it would be best not to go into it too deeply.
It is amazing how fragile and vulnerable one can become to negative influences and negative influencers. On a good day, it is not always easy to keep positive, but on not-so-good days, it is really a chore. Sometimes on these days, it might be better to be alone or get busy doing something physical.
So this journey through the rapids of cancer is a lot about learning to cope, finding out what works and what doesn't.
I find that if I don't verbalize the struggle, I don't get it air and it seems easier to deal with. But, when the darkness comes, I go to the Light and pray, and try to get as close to God as I can..
Two things generally happen. I start out of the hole I fell into, and I feel closer to God, which lifts my spirits. I just have to remember that win or lose, live or die, God's got this, and in His hands all will be well.
