Well Hello there! Sorry I've been MIA here on the LiLBaT Blog, I can't believe its been a month!! I've made notes and a few videos, started writing a few times but well no excuse... SO here are a few videos I made on Depression! I think its really important to discuss and share what I am going though and my experiences with Depression/Anxiety/Etc that way I can help myself and others. It's to be relatable but also getting it out of my head and into the world makes things feel better. Its not stuck in my mind of repeat (anxiety) if I share. This can be for anyone who has depression, anyone who wants to learn about depression (if you have it or not), especially for people who want to get to know me, and just anyone who is interested... So Here are the videos.. Please, Please, Please leave comments and feedback!
Don't forget to follow on facebook and YouTube!!

There really isn't a 101...
I'm not a mental health professional.
I'm sharing my experiences, thoughts and ideas.

Making these videos and watching and watching and then choosing what to turn into text, is already helping me. I rant and sometimes it can be hard for my points to be recognized because I jump around. I think it's important to see how I jump around. For both of these videos, I kept it linear with how my thoughts flowed and didn't rearrange into sections. I think thats the best way to do this. Shows exactly how my mind works.
...
Here are the main points of the videos!! again please comment and ask questions. I'm hoping to make at least one video a week for now, mostly talking. Not all about depression but it will be a recurring theme.

so far this has been extremely helpful!! I've been able to speak and communicate better with those I need to. Not even sure if they have watched but because I made the videos and found the big points out its easier to mention to the people in my life who do not understand or typically think I'm just being a bit extra. And I am working on seeing things from other peoples sides and views just like I want them to do for me. BUT this week has been amazing and things are only going to get better. ONE or TEN really huge things happened this week and I am so happy and excited that its going to make things different and give me a big thing to not constantly be anxious, depressed, worried, mad, upset or whatever over!!! SO YESSSS!! even if you don't want to share videos of you ranting just make them for yourself. It really helps! You don't even have to rewatch them, I suggest you do so you can make relations but just getting it out of your mind is a HUGE STEP!
