Bring it On! How I beat the October Blues

The past seven years I have been on a journey of accepting and growing with my mental illness: depression. Some may say, even myself, that it is Seasonal Affective Disorder – as it rears its head in May and October each year.

 

In September I began planning what I would need to do, to beat the October Blues…
