DEPRESSION WHISPERS

Don't know why, depression is here.
Nor why the whispers, ov voices I hear.
Transitions, ov a different time.
I guess, deep visions ov loneliness sighs.
Dark and vacant, is the soul of my eyes.
Deep within, the silent tears to cry.
Depression wears, on my soul & mind.

I know that feeling. I know why I'm feeling like I do. I've asked for help & am on the waiting list for 1 to 1 self-esteem boosting. All else I've been told is to cut down on stimulants & take more physical exercise. I've been on self-esteem, confidence building & assertiveness classes though so can look back through my paperwork & I have been doing. The information, skills/strengths/talents exercise & goal-setting exercises are helpful though the skills/strengths/talents exercise is very hard. The goal-setting exercises gives you a sense of achievement as you tick things off your list as does action-planning. Analysis makes you feel worse though as you become more aware of your flaws. I've also got destructive emotions & how to beat them by Daniel Goleman & emotional intelligence also by Daniel Goleman which are good & I can re-read. Authentic happiness by Martin Seligman is also good & I can re-read that too.
