Is change really that bad?

People say that change is the demon, but is it really? Change can mean many things. Maybe a new job or losing a job, perhaps a new relationship or a change in yourself or friends.
I admit some changes are for the worst, a partner leaving you or being diagnosed with an illness or a friend leaving your life. When i became ill with Depression i thought that it would be the worst thing that has happened to me, it has been horrible, but actually it has helped me in a lot of ways. I found out who my real friends are and i became so much closer to them. It has helped me try and fight for things that matter to me. Having depression has made me change so much. It's like i had to grow up quicker than everyone else. It changed me and some people didn't like the changes. Those people are no longer in my life. I am who i am and i can't help it if something like that changes me. It's bound to change anyone and their views on things. It's a hard thing to go through but i'm making my way there.
A change which has helped me a lot was when my boyfriend left me. That made me realise how much i depended on him. Now he is gone i have been able to become more independent. I do still rely on my friends a lot but that's only because they are like my anti-depressant. Life will get better for me. I just need to accept what i have and that my future will probably be amazing :)
