“In The Depths Of Depression, Passion May Seem Like A Distant Dream. But Remember, Even The Smallest Spark Can Ignite A Roaring Fire Of Purpose Within You.”
Finding passion, in the life purpose sense, is an amazing way to help pull out of a depressive episode, and to stay in a non-depressive state once out of it. Think about what makes you feel like you have purpose. Writing? Drawing? Playing music? Volunteering? Taking day trips?

Experiencing at least one joyful moment every day can be a positive contribution to getting out of a depressive episode, and staying out of it in the future. Living with purpose is key to recovery and maintaining well being, in my experience.
