The Never-Ending Cycle

Detail how stress leads to depression and in turn how depression leads to more stress in your life.

This prompt encourages deeper introspection and awareness of this continuous, bidirectional cycle. By narrating your experience of how stress caused depression and how this depression subsequently led to more stress, you’ll shed light on the complexity of this relationship. Reflect on the feelings, behaviours and thoughts that indicate a shift from stress to depression and then back to stress.
