Depression doesn’t steal your life all at once. It takes it piece by piece — hobbies you once loved, laughter you once shared, dreams you once chased. Healing is about reclaiming those pieces, one small joy at a time.
Depression gradually drains energy, hope, and joy, making life feel colorless. Recovery often requires small, consistent steps: reintroducing hobbies, connecting with loved ones, and celebrating minor wins. Professional help accelerates the process, but patience is key. Joy can return — slowly, but surely.
