Depression takes as long as it takes. Looking back - time heals. It seems a snail’s pace, yet once through it feels like it was quick. It’s weird, the months and months are barely even a feeling anymore. Our new life takes shape and becomes. We become. And that better version of self and life takes hold. Depression fades in the light of such. We accept our new normal.
That’s the classic order of things. Depression then acceptance. One doesn’t vanquish depression, they let go and move passed it; accepting their situation. Like anger or bargaining before this, we let go and moved forward. The devilish part is figuring how to let go. Depression truly is the darkness before the light. No time along the path has it been this dark or bleak. Have faith, when the light shines through it feels miraculous.
Time heals. You are doing really well. Just takes some time.

Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
