A life altering event in Dec& #39;19 shook me up. My father killed himself after suffering from depression for the last 7 years. The last few months have been an emotional roller coaster. 1/n

After trying & failing to get back to & #39;normal& #39; a few times, I& #39;ve now decided to rebuild every single aspect of my life.

The fundamentals of how I perceive life have been shaken. My mental Lego I& #39;ve built in my head for all these years has been broken down. 2/n

I& #39;ve tried to put some band-aid and move on. Didn& #39;t work for me. And I& #39;m currently on my journey of rebuilding that lego inside my head. I start over. I learn from my past mistakes, and hopefully do a better job of rebuilding. It& #39;s all an iteration, anyway. 3/n

This thread is an honest attempt to seek help from people who& #39;ve been here and also share what I& #39;ve learnt so far in this journey to rebuild I& #39;ll talk about the people, habits & tools that have helped me get through a really difficult time mentally. 4/n

**Support System -** I& #39;m grateful for having family and friends who told me it was ok to cry, vent out, and be vulnerable. I attempted taking it all in my stride and moving on quickly. I failed miserably. I couldn& #39;t make sense of anything around me. 5/n
