Motivating Quote by Dr Stefan Cembrowicz

“Motivating yourself is very difficult when you are depressed. Feeling pleasure often has to be relearned – it cannot happen to order. Experiment and try to be patient with yourself. When very depressed, coping with the day ahead is a very big challenge – tackle it in stages.” quote by Dr Stefan Cembrowicz
