What I went through

Eleven months where I did everything correctly and felt nothing. I kept waiting for a dramatic turning point. There wasn't one.

What helped me

Two things, both boring. Getting outside within an hour of waking, even for four minutes. And telling one person the truth when they asked how I was. That second one changed more than anything.

What I wish I knew

The first sign of life isn't joy. For me it was mild irritation at a song I didn't like — an actual preference. I nearly missed it.

What I went through

Three years of waking at 5am with my chest already tight, before a job I genuinely liked.

What helped me

Treating it as a body problem first. Cold water on the wrists, a walk before screens, and eating something before caffeine. Anxiety on an empty stomach with coffee is a different animal.

What I would suggest trying

Move one thing you dread to the first 20 minutes of the day. The anticipation was always worse than the task.
