I know Ray has taught that learned helplessness, serotonin and certain stressors are bad for us.
I've been dealing with difficult life circumstances for the last two decades and a recent shock has sent me into a depressed state.
I've tried prayer consistently for the last two years, to try each day to get in touch with what I should do. However in that two years I have been unable to move the dial one notch in terms of improving my health, personal relationships and work satisfaction. So I don't feel there is any major area where I am doing well and at least take comfort from that.
I often feel angry, and rather than suppress it I am wondering whether I should find a positive outlet for it if I can.
Maybe journalling and writing things down might help?
If you have been through difficult circumstances which have gone on for a long time, what methods have you used to deal with that, that has helped?
