Thank you very much for your kind words.
The habit of being depressed can be hard to break. I sometimes fear I sabotage my own attempts to climb out of the pit.
but you are right... both states are transitory and not being attached to either can be a helpful way of coping
namaste,
lilith> Try not to look on admitting you might be feeling better as leading to your feeling worse. Moving to a happier state after a long period of depression is difficult, and there will almost certainly be fluctuations. This period of self-hate is one of the them. While self-hate is a state you no doubt know too well, don't deny yourself the knowledge of having felt better. Feeling happy may be less familiar, but it's no less real than feeling unhappy.
