After my dad passed away along with it a lot of other things that went wrong all at once I found it really hard to cope I went through a lot of hardship and fell right into a deep depression I didn’t find meaning to anything my work family or anything I really got stuck into my religion and just wanted to learn more and more I was looking for something to hold on to something to give me hope it was the only thing kept me going. im not go into details however after a long year ive come to a point im feeling a lot better now im beginning to be more optimistic about life and started to find meaning in my work and everyday life. However I don’t know whether this feeling is good or bad because sometimes now I get the urge to enjoy life not do anything drastic but sometimes I get the urge to listen to music again and I do it and im beginning to plan ahead again like what I want to do and what I want to achieve. I know this life is temporary but is it good to be optimistic about life because sometimes I feel that im reading up less on my religion and not solely focused on it. I mean my religion still means a lot to me but im beginning to see hope in life again im beginning to trust people again and beginging to socialise and enjoy spending time with my close ones again.

This year has don’t me good it has I feel made me a better person made me realise the importance things in life

Than again im scared at the same time that the depression might come back again and the same world will hurt me again and I will fail once again. I don’t want to get too lost in this world. But for some reason im beginning to feel happy even though nothing much has happened but im just happy in finding the hope again. I don’t know whether this is a good feeling or bad feeling please advice this may sound silly but been depressed for so long that I don’t know whether feeling happy is a good thing or not.

Thanks in advance

As salam alekum (Peace be upon you)

Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, the nights."
