On this blog, I focus on mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and low moods in general. Who doesn’t struggle with low moods, sometimes for more than a few days? It’s part of life. That doesn’t mean you struggle with true depression.
It’s essential to understand that depression is not merely feeling down for a few days; it encompasses a range of symptoms and can have a significant impact on an individual’s daily life. Clinical depression is diagnosed based on specific criteria, and it’s important for individuals to seek professional help if they believe they may be experiencing symptoms of depression.
But no one has to struggle with the issues continually. There is help. Perhaps it’s medication. Perhaps it’s medication and counseling. More than likely, it’s a combination of both. It will also probably mean a change of habits, routines, thoughts, what we eat, and when we sleep, all of which contribute to our overall mental and emotional health.
We can learn to manage our moods and live a wonderful, fulfilled life. I wrote a book about this subject. I recommend it because it is unlike most books about mental health issues. Although heavily researched. it is written simply so the reader can easily grasp the information. What makes it unique is that it is divided into two sections.
The first sixty days are daily devotionals focusing on one aspect of mood disorders. The second half includes what I call The Toolbox and gives lots of practical suggestions that anyone can implement. It also includes over a hundred practical tips that will help you in your recovery. The book is now in e-book and soft-cover format through draft2digital.com.
I hope your day is wonderful, and God bless you.

I have a ton of information on this blog. In case you’re wondering, the word “faith” is self-explanatory, as is “DIY”, which I will throw in now and again. But you may be wondering about the “Sigh”. Often, when we are down, depressed, or anxious, we do a lot of sighing.
I hope you will check out the rest of my blog and that it will help you navigate your own mood issue. That’s the whole purpose behind my writing.
Have a blessed day.
