Hopelessness - another lie

I've been thinking about the helpless, hopeless thoughts and emotions during and especially after anxiety and depression. They are most challenging for me in the moment. It feels sad, disturbing, lonely, my reality, and there's no way out. The picture my mind presents is a false one; it's just another lie to keep me in a survival state. I have to be aware that this isn't the truth, it's not my higher self speaking, and that state I'm in is temporary.

When we are in full-blown panic, it's hard to see the truth because we initially cannot see the truth at all.
