Summarizing My Experience of Depression

Summarizing my experience of depression: if you feel depressed, in the end you still feel better, and only then you can change something. But if you already feel good, is it necessary to change anything then? And if yes, in what way?
Therefore, the first step is to realize that you have problems not only when you're depressed but also when you feel relatively good, so the recovery will require much greater changes than just getting rid of some unpleasant symptoms.

When we're depressed, we're obsessed with unpleasant thoughts, but the very thought obsession usually begins when we feel good or even like we're on top of the world - that's when we usually get seduced by tempting, happy thoughts (which can make us very creative) so that later when being exhausted, we get overtaken by nightmares.

Maybe to overcome your personal mental problems is the main business of your life because if for some reason, there is something very important to be hidden from you, the safest place for this is your fear.
