-to pull together, to be looking up, to kick the habit, to cover up, to drop off, to turn over, (Fiction) Recently, I\'ve been feeling better after pulling myself together. Until last year, I was struggling with depression. There were several reasons why I often felt depressed. Most of all, I couldn\'t sleep well. Every night, I used to turn over in bed while imagining every possible situation and worrying about my future. This insomnia led to depression, and I went to a counseling center and got useful advice. I realized that there was no point in worrying about uncertainty and covering up my feelings. After that, I kicked the habit of overthinking. Then, things have been looking up. Nowadays, the number of days feeling lethargic remarkably dropped off.
