Topic: How you deal with depression? - page 23. (Read 8204 times)

Understand that life has changes, up and down moments and that the biggest flaw that society has given us is the need to fixate on these things, medicate them and try to suck the rest of the world down with those that cannot cope.

I will walk the road and see the beauty of nature then that's where I can calm the heart.

The greatest service you can do to yourself is to first try and figure out whether you are actually depressed or just deeply sad.

It is perfectly normal to go through a period of deep sadness following a tragic event, a break up or the loss of a loved one but doctors always seem to be so quick at calling it depression even when it's just a perfectly natural coping mechanism. It's just that as soon as it is labelled "depression"  they can write you a prescription and make a profit. Furthermore, pills always seem to fix one thing but often damage something that wasn't broken and bring with them a lot of side effects that can drag people down a spiral and lose control over their situation.

I am sure there are conditions that require medication but I believe the biggest problem is people's low tolerance towards pain, whether physical or other. Faced with pain most people turn into kids hoping for a magic pill to make it all go away rather than look at the source and understand that sometimes the only way out is the way through it.

I would personally stay away from medication. The only thing I would suggest is: whenever you feel like withdrawing more and more into the mind, make an effort to stay more into the body and try to discipline yourself into some kind of physical activity that you enjoy. That releases endorphins that are a natural anti-depressant and make you feel better with no side effects. Be patient and keep reminding yourself that it's temporary. Spend time doing things you enjoy and surround yourself with good company, including pets.

If this state of being came about because of a situation that you can change, by all means try to improve it. If there's nothing you can do about it, like the loss of someone, then try to come to terms with the fact that it can't change and do your best to learn to live with it.

First and foremost, consult a professional. It helps.

Secondly, everything's within you, my friend. Try to counter it as strongly as you can. Go to places and be with a company that gives you a lot of fun and enjoyment. Read books and articles that boost your ego. Listen to music, watch videos, do things that give you good vibes. Never dwell on bad and sad thoughts.

Personally, I would prefer to go on a travel or even a daily walk. I do a lot of hanging out with friends. When I feel uncomfortable I would leave and listen to music and read books alone.

I wish you success in your battle, mate. 

find a hobby, stay away from negative thoughts, grow a plant, go to nature.

Just drinking beer eating some delicious foods yeah 

Im just walking in the park then buy some foods and not thinking so much

The best way of dealing with depression is a walk in the fresh air with your beloved dog. As well helps the fishing. When you fish, there is excitement and he always wins depression. Also helps me a trip to the shooting range. You switch attention and concentrate on the target. With each shot the negativity goes away.

Meditation is only and simple way to get out from depression. I have also survived through it for two years.. there is a organisation in India with the name of Brahma Kumaris. They teach Rajyoga.. which empowers your soul and subconscious mind.  Get well soon

You should not forget to take care of yourself and continue your medical assistance. Dealing with depression is really hard but it is advisable to spend a lot of time outdoors. Maybe you should take a break for the meantime. Maybe that's what you need to overcome all of that.

Surrender your life to God.

That's it let God maneuver your life*

when i depressed i try to look other work that can give me happiness and forget any problem that i strugle i try to listen music that can give me a peace of mind or either playing online games or playing outside with my friends

i try to focus on some pleasant things for me, do what i like to do and not what i have to. or think about people who are in worse state than me (it sometimes helps). and i like how this video puts it nicely https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kfUE41-JFw kinda gives you a bit different angle to look at yourself

How to overcome deep depression ??
I will go to do whatever I like to do with my lovely family.

You know, no one can deal with their depression by themselves, a person with depression always needs a helping hand of a friend. Depression is something that makes you feel like your at rock bottom and you can't climb up without a helping hands of a love ones or friend. Try seeing things more clearly and witness how colorful life is.

Every person can cope with a bad state of mind. In a depressed state, think more about others, communicate more, direct your forces in the right direction. Then you will not have to constantly think about what is traumatizing you mentally.

Maybe If I were going to do is Fill life with activities, resolve the problem if there is a problem, not a lot of thought, care for those around us, always pray to god and do not get drunk.

Depression is the outcome of your over exhausting body and mind,There are still hopes for you and only you are responsible for your self and the one that can overcome and cure it.I would suggest try to live simple and healthy lifestyle,eat healthy foods and think positively and always look forward.Don't stress your life try to laugh and enjoy.

how do i manage with depression is much different i think the way other people do ...i spen sometime with my family or the person whom i love a lot...i spend sometime in nature..looking at sky ..chirping birds...and hustling leaves.....and when i get back to my work..i feel rejoiced and motivated...that's how i deal with depression.

A lot of work will help to forget about depression
Alsoa lot of communication and different activity
