Everyone will find their own way of dealing with each obstacle that is put in front of them.

However like anything if you have the knowledge and advice from someone who has been there then you’d rather learn from others than make a few mistakes along the way.

Unfortunately I didn’t have this privileged and I did make a few mistakes along the way and now I am still paying for them.

£10,000 to be exact, this is what has been hanging over me like a dark cloud for a long time and has contributed to my prolonged depression.

Like many people I have had loses in my life and I believe that is the main factor of my initial diagnosis but always having this debt hanging over my head doesn’t help my recovery at all.

Depression is all about the state of mind and thought process, whilst I am consciously trying to overcome the negativity in my life I will always carry a glimpse of it around with me whilst I owe this money.

I am actively trying to resolve this part of my life and address it rather than bury my head in the sand but it is a constant battle to face my fears how ever small or large they may seem in comparison to yours.

In your life as in mine we should all find our own way and do what ever makes us happy and learn to put ourselves ahead of others on occasion.
