Maybe I jinxed myself. I was secretly wondering if the last 2 months were too good to be true. My thoughts are darkening and I'm scared. I don't think I can go back to that place. But is it too much to ask for, to just be able to live without depression? I'm not even talking about being happy, I'll settle for just not depressed for more than a couple of months at a time.

No, no, no! Don't go there. Seriously...this is so important.
Breathe.
Stay in the moment. Be Mindful of the feeling but it is only for right now. Do not, do not ruminate and worry. Sadness is a normal feeling. Notice it, welcome it but it does not necessarily mean you are headed down the path to depression.
At least this is what I have been learning from a book called the Mindful Way Through Depression. It seems to be working for me but I can definitely acknowledge the feeling of panic and depression. If you can get your hands on this book I highly recommend it! It even has a mediation CD to go with it.
