Depression is a physical change in the neural pathways of ourbrain that control our  thoughts, to put it simply. We’re not using the parts of our brains that people without depression use as much, and other parts of our brain more. 

To beat depression, we have to re-wire those neural pathways. Which means engaging in activities that will change the neuroplasicity of our brains over time. 

I’m spending so much time sleeping and on my phone and not seeing anyone, I’m just cementing the bad neural pathways into my brain more, and cutting off the parts of my brain that will get me out the depression.

Apparently it’s really hard to fight this, but I feel like now I can visualise what’s going on for me I’ve got a change to beat this…whenever I go outside, get off my phone, do exercise, get sunlight, see people, and challenge those cemented depressed  neural pathways, I’m getting one step closer to healing.
