For Reddit users who experienced depression. What caused you to rediscover your desire for life?

honestly acceptance, acknowledgement on what happened and the fact that it wasn’t my fault. therapy is expensive, so I slowly eased out of depression and well became neutral I guess? I don’t really know how to describe it but it came to a point where I was like “I’d like a change, to feel differently than down in the dumps, I don’t want to live my life forever depressed, I don’t want to live with pushing others away, I don’t want to live my life… tearing myself up. I want something more… something new.”

and so I guess I had just slowly worked my way up to recovering? I can’t really explain it.
