OKHi Colleen, good question. . There is only 1 way that I have found to do this and that is one step at a time . . For me, as far as I can tell from this current standpoint, I have always had depression and anxiety . . Everyone has their own unique experience, though, or so I hear and read . . It's been a very difficult way to live, I'm not going to lie . . I've chosen to keep going in spite of it . . Message me anytime. . My best peace, love, and good vibes to you . . Sam . .

It's just one facet of us, Colleen. We're still unique, complex individuals, but we carry one extra piece of baggage with us on the journey. All very best to you as you travel this path. 💝
