In depression there are two possible positions;
distance or identify with the disease.
Who identifies with the disease is delivered to it and feel bad, guilty, unworthy.

You will need:
Ask for help, you only can not find the way, you needs someone who listen without judging and who can trust.
Find the sense, but this alone is not enough.
To discover the meaning of life we must first recognize, accept and something very important:

We must love oneself, protect oneself, take care of oneself, be good to oneself, humanize oneself, make oneself all the best possible..

We must orient ourselves. It is not the same saying:

"life is not worth anything" or "I am not worthless".
There is a devaluation of the person
(by their mental outlook and by the " I shoulds", and not the events,
Therefore in this quest we must repeat this phrase:
"The sense is found, not sought.".

"It is very important change in attitude, not only to accept but love oneself.
Ultimately, the spiritual depression is equal to "let oneself loving."

You are my God, you're all I have, you fill my life and give me security.
Thank You touched me the inheritance that is a beautiful land.
I thank you for the advice you give me, your teachings guide me in the darkest night.
I always have you present, if you're by my side, nothing will make me fall.
So I'm very happy so I'm happy, I live confidently.
You taught me to live as you like.
In your presence I'm so happy! By your side I am always happy!.
