Listen to the people who love you. Believe that they are worth living for even when you dont believe it. Seek out the memories depression takes away and project them into the future. Be brave be strong take your pills. Exercise because its good for you even if every step weighs a thousand pounds. Eat when food itself disgusts you. Reason with yourself when you have lost your reason.
Faith is the muscle of the spirit. It is strengthened through study prayer and meditation. As exercise builds muscle and our bodies become strong study prayer and meditation builds faith and our spirits become strong.
