Coping with depression is not easy. You might feel stuck in the same negative thinking without being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Motivation might be at its lowest, and you just seem unable to find the energy to do anything.
That is when positive affirmations can be such an enormous help. Repeating positive affirmations requires little effort but gives you huge benefits in return.
In today’s post, you’ll find 30 short positive affirmations for depression to help you get through difficult times and begin healing. If you struggle with anxiety, you should check out my previous post with 25 positive affirmations to calm an anxious mind.
How Affirmations Can Help You With Depression
When you are depressed, you are in a loophole of negative thoughts. It’s then crucial to break free from that loophole, and by using positive affirmations, you can do that!
Repeating positive affirmations every day will help you reprogram your mind to think positive thoughts. The more positive thoughts you have, the better you eventually will feel. It all starts with our thoughts, so when you are able to think more positively, you’ll be able to do more things for yourself that will help heal your depression.
However, it’s important to note that affirmations alone are not considered a cure for depression, but they can help you cope and give you the right mindset to heal!
