It’s Just Another Gray Day
You feel hopeless and helpless, like you got caught out in the rain and there was nothing for it but to walk home, getting soaked the whole way.
Your confidence and energy have been washed away, and the storms of life have beaten you down, so that you feel incapable or incompetent, like you just don’t have what it takes. You’re drenched to the bone, and it feels like the rain will never stop.
Your Weather Forecast: Partly Sunny?
Everyone – everyone – feels this way sometimes. But most don’t feel that way all the time. If you do, it’s likely that you’re suffering from depression. The good news is that depression can usually be successfully treated. Healing is possible. It won’t be sunny every day … It just won’t be cloudy every day.
The Road Out
When you’re stuck in the rainy mud and mire of life, it seems impossible to move, let alone imagine living life under clear skies and bright sunshine. But there is hope and a hand up.
For some, the road out leads past the doctor’s office or the pharmacy, for the cause of their depression is physical.
But for others – for whom painful or traumatic life experiences lie at the root of their despair – the way out can be EMDR.
EMDR doesn’t just hand you an umbrella and galoshes, it goes after the proverbial little black cloud that follows your every step: its goal is to heal your past, so that sadness from those untreated wounds finally stops pouring into your life. To learn more, please call or email us today.
