Overview

Breathing in the Dark (Volume I) A Soft Companion for Understanding Depression Breathing in the Dark is a gentle, trauma-informed guide for anyone living with depression, emotional numbness, exhaustion, or the quiet belief that they are ""too much"" or ""not enough."" Written in short, poetic chapters, this book offers a safe space to breathe when life feels heavy, foggy, or impossible. Instead of demanding motivation or positivity, this volume explores depression as a biological and emotional survival response, not a personal failure. Through tender reflections and nervous-system-aware insights, it helps readers understand: * Why the body feels heavy and tired * Why numbness and emptiness appear * Why getting out of bed is difficult * Why shame, guilt, and ""I'm a burden"" thoughts arise * Why thinking becomes foggy or spirals out of control * Why dissociation and disconnection happen Each chapter is a small, manageable step - a breath - offering presence instead of pressure, compassion instead of judgment. Breathing in the Dark is for anyone who wants to feel less alone inside depression, for anyone who needs words that don't overwhelm, and for anyone longing for a softer way to survive the nights that feel endless. This is not a book about ""fixing yourself."" It is a book about understanding yourself, until healing becomes possible again.
