Daily Inspiration: July 23, 2021

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:  I am willing to ask for help. Nearly all of us feel a little blue or a little down every now and then. Maybe we've had a bad day at work. Maybe we've had a disagreement with a friend or a loved one. Maybe we just woke up on the wrong side of bed. It happens. Occasional temporary feelings of sadness are a natural part of life. However if you frequently feel this way, or if the feelings are excessive, you may be suffering from depression. There is no shame or stigma associated with seeking professional help for depression. The only shame is in allowing yourself (or a loved one) to suffer needlessly without getting help. When looking for help in overcoming depression, keep in mind that where you get the help from is not nearly as important as just getting it! Today's Focus was excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article: Dealing with Depression: Depression Is Not A Character Flaw Written by Mark Schwartz Read the original article... This is Marie T. Russell, publisher of InnerSelf, wishing you a day of being willing to ask for help (today and every day) Join me again tomorrow for the Daily Inspiration and focus of the day. Today, we are willing to ask for help.
