Don’t feel bad about feeling bad. Don’t be frightened of feeling afraid. Don’t be angry about getting angry. There is no need to give up when we are feeling depressed. Nor should we be dismayed at the grief which often accompanies the outgrowing of anything which needs outgrowing. We can be glad that our soul is speaking to us and pushing us onwards. We frequently need to persevere with a period of inner turmoil before the dust can settle and be swept out the door. . Donna Goddard
About This Quote

When you are feeling down, instead of giving up, be glad that your feelings are trying to tell you something. Being sad or depressed doesn’t mean that you are not enjoying life. It just means that you are growing and becoming a stronger person. You can expect to feel this way at least once every few years as you become more independent.

Don’t be afraid to reach out for help if you need it. Try to find an outlet for your negative feelings so that they don’t take over your life. You don’t have to let them control you, but rather use them as motivation for change.
