Ep. #151: Depression | DEEP REST from the Character You're Trying to Play

“Depression is your body saying, fuck you. I don’t want to be this character anymore. I don’t want to hold up this avatar you’ve created in the world. It’s too much for me.”

~Jim Carrey

Everything was going great, I was on top of the world, ready to take on 2023…

Then I saw her coming my way, I tried to hide so she couldn’t see me. I ducked, I pretended I didn’t see her, but nope. She spotted me with her petrifying gaze and under her spell I went.

This past week I encountered my least favorite emotion, her name is DEPRESSION. She often accompanies me during the winter season of my menstrual cycle. Although I can usually expect her to arrive pretty consistently, sometimes she does’t come at all which then leads me to assume she’s gone for good.

In this episode I’m sharing a sequence of recent events that triggered my inner critic which then led me in a direction that was quite enlightening.

Using my winter/ hibernation season for deep rest and introspection. I’ll tell you what I uncovered this month.
