Answer 2

It is a good sign that you are still thinking about your dreams - many depressed people lose sight of these as well as the smaller points in life. Perhaps you need a break - a day out on your own / with friends, involvement in a lifestyle course or embarking on a new interest. Sometimes you have to take a day at a time, pamper yourself with what makes you happy and give yourself some leeway. We all get blue at certain times - know that you are now alone.

Depression is manifested both physically and emotionally. The classic physical signs of depression are headaches, fatigue, digestive problems, hyperactivity, sleeping disorders, loss of concentration, and distorted eating patterns.

Chemicals imbalances in the brain can also be either the cause or effect of depression. Dopamine is the chemical that produces anxiety, stress, nervousness, and aggression. When the level of dopamine is ELEVATED, a person may develop feelings of insecurity, paranoia, and fear. Serotonin is another important chemical in the brain that can affect a person's mental well-being.
A person with LOW serotonin levels displays mood swings, and some sort of compulsion, such as alcoholism, overeating, or being a workaholic, perfectionist, or procrastinator.

Best ways to beat depression is Diet, Exercise, Supplements or Therapy.

Its essential to get the B-complex vitamins, since they work together to balance proper brain functioning.
Fatty acids, such Omega-6, Omega-3.
Magnesium and herbal extracts such:
St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum in Latin) is a long-living plant with yellow flowers. It contains many chemical compounds. Some are believed to be the active ingredients that produce the herb's effects, including the compounds hypericin and hyperforin.
Chinese schizandra berry, wild oats, and calamus root.

It sounds as if you may be depressed. Depression is easily fixed. If you go to your doctor, they have a small test that you can take to determine, how depressed you are, and what is the best medicine for you to be on. Depression is not just sadness. It is not enjoying things the way you used to. Not wanted to do things. Um...maybe getting angry or crying easily. Wanting to be at home, and not out with friends. And things like that. You should definitely go to the doctor, you will be surprised at how much better you feel.

Answer 5

I've had bouts of depression all my life. It's sounds like you might be in a rut. If it lasts too long try finding an activity that can get you connected to the spiritual world....mediation, reading books on not just religion but science , try different music and nature walks. Get "away" from the "world". Good luck.
