I try to take the time to reflect on many things in my life at regular intervals. I ask myself what is working and what is not. What is worth my time and what is not. As you can imagine, the answers to some of these questions change from time to time. Lately, I’ve been reflecting on my blog, and again I’ve decided that I want to try to make some changes.
At first, my blog covered a lot of topics. Then, at some point, I decided I was going to focus on caregivers of those affected by mental illness. I think my intentions were good, but if you read my blog you know that I have gone back to writing just about anything, and I have been doing that for quite a while. Well, I want to try to narrow the focus of my blog again.
What I am going to attempt to do is focus on depression. As I thought about it, I realized that this condition can definitely fill a blog. There is a lot of information out there about causes, treatments, and living with depression, and my hope is to bring that information to you. And, looking at the whole health of someone with depression is important, so I will be talking about physical, mental, social, and spiritual health as it applies in the world of depression. I envision the blog will be a resource for any caregivers, friends, and connections as well because depression does not just affect the depressed person. In fact, I’m guessing there are few (if any) people who aren’t touched by depression in some way.
So, I’m hoping you will join me on my changed journey in blogging. I’m also hoping this will be helpful for everyone, and I look forward to getting started.
