> What did you change your approach to? How did you do things differently? I often still get stuck in this bind. It's really tough not to for me.
First, I was absolutely convinced that I could "fix" my depression by filling every waking minute with productive activity ... school, work, outside jobs, athletics.
Obviously that sounds great, but not to the extreme that i took it, there was no way I could keep up that insane pace. I was running from myself, and crashed.
Now, I can see things differently. Peace and happiness will never come from me trying to achieve and conquer what normal society says I should. I've come to see that normal society and lifestyles are insane.
I still do a lot of things, but because I want to, not because of outside pressures and expectations. I hope this makes sense.
