#channel/bodhi-light-teachings  My depression lasts about this long. Because I recognize depression, I squash it right away. For my entire life, I have severe depression. I didn't couldn't understand it was depression. One is younger at a very early age had depression already. Just like the normal person. Uh you just live with it. You bear with it. And you accept it as part of you. And you don't realize that depression is bad news for you and for anyone who wants to get close to you. Through meditation, I can tell you that I have a normal life. I would say um not depressed at all. My depression lasts about this long. Because I recognize depression, I squash it right away. So, it's not luck. It's hard work. And anyone can do it.
