One of the most destructive states for your mind and body is depression. It is a phenomenon that affects millions of people around the world, no matter the culture. The triggering elements of depression are infinite, and they vary case to case. External and inner factors often attack our mind and body together, making depression a profoundly negative aspect in our lives. Let's take a look at some great tips to conquer the negative mood and get the most joy out of our daily routine.

Go outside. A nice spring day can cheer up even the saddest person. But staying out in the sun is beneficial for more than just poetic and emotional reasons. Sunlight has an important role in many chemical processes taking place in our body. Lack of sunshine triggers the release of melatonin, a hormone that produces a feeling of lethargy and tiredness. This hormone is only created in the dark -- this is why winter also brings more depression, as the sun is hidden and the nights are long. All year round cloudy weather may trigger the same negative effects. If you live in such an area try to get away somehow a few times during the winter season and go where you can enjoy the sun. If you don't live in one of those SAD areas, finding reasons to go outside is easy: practice a sport, go fishing, try hiking, do some gardening.
Get involved. An active life leaves very little room for depression. You tend to let negative feelings dominate your mood when you reach a point of constant and repetitive analysis of problems. Involving yourself in several inspiring activities will greatly reduce times of feeling sorry for yourself. Maybe you are depressed because you failed to reach an important milestone towards a goal. Don't get discouraged. Try to pursue that goal right away or, if it is completely compromised, find a different goal to strive for.
Allow some time for relaxation. Have fun and relax your mind and body. When negative thoughts start circling, shift your focus to a pleasant element. It can be a person, a location, something around you, or even a distant memory. Clear your head of all the negative feelings and all your worries.
Balance your diet and take care of your fitness. Try to lower your intake of alcohol and caffeine. After the momentary boost of these stimulants is gone you will only feel worse and get addicted to wanting even more. Some good physical exercise will never do you any harm and helps beat the addiction. The fitter you are, the more self-esteem you'll experience and this will eventually lead to happiness.
Socialize. No matter how difficult it might seem to get out of the house and smile in the company of others, this is probably the most effective way of getting over depression. Socializing is essential for all of us and you should see it as a fun activity, not an obligation. Select some friends that have always made you feel better and reconnect with them.

Depression is a disease caused by neurotransmitters in the brain not properly signaling from one side of the brain to the other. There are many forms of depression. A simple depression can be harmless but if it lasts for a long time, then I would see a therapist and a psychiatrist that have many anti-depressants to prescribe according to the diagnosis. Severe depression is devastating and classic symptoms are withdrawal from others and things you once loved, over-eating or not eating, alcohol and/or drug abuse to cope, sleeping too much or too little. It can be as bad as not having the will or energy to even get dressed or bathe yourself. The worse scenario are suicidal thoughts.
Besides professional help to determine what type of depression, friends that understand can help. Laughter is also good medicine. We all need a reason to get up in the morning and get out into the world.
SAD or Seasonal Affective Disorder may occur when the weather changes in the fall. The help for this is sun or sitting under flourescent lights for awhile everyday. Anxiety can also cause depression. Without knowing all the symptoms, it would be difficult to know what meds (if any) are suitable if at all. The first thing to do is find out what kind of depression and go from there.

Answer 5

the basics are looking after yourself... things like a good sleep routine, eating well and plenty of exercise. Avoid stuff like alcohol and coffee. Finding someone to talk to sometimes helps and often writing about what's running around in your head also helps. There's some really good sites, moodjuice.co.uk or moodcafe.co.uk or livinglifetothefull.co.uk or moodgym.co.au they all have links to loads of brillant information. Take a look at living life to the full... it's a sort of online counsellor with some really good modules that you can work through. There is of course medication.. and there are some really good drugs available, but drugs work best if you do a bit of work on what it is that is causing the depression. The biggest trick to beating depression, is identifiying the cause.

Answer 6

Hello
If the level of severity of depression is high, take professional help.
Medication would help one to get over the depression faster-
if the depression is characterised by sleep disturbance, loss of appetite, loss of /increase in weight, constipation, decreased sexual interest and mood variation within a day.
Some research had shown that a combination of pharmacotherapy and cognitive psychotherapy is better.

If one is talking about depression as manifested as sadness, loss of interest in activities, low self esteem and hopelessness, different form of psychological therapies would help.
Alternatively,
1.Change your perception
2. Try to see things differently from what one is seeing.
3. Alter the way one thinks
4. Get into activities that would give you pleasure
5. Perceive the pleasurable aspects of it.
6. If one has time get into physical activities that would help you feel good- though it does not last long
7. Every bit of 'feeling good' is good
8. Past is past - cannot step into the same running water twice.
9. Think of now- here and now
10. Work for a day- count the positive experiences, feel good about it and
Move on and on and on and on ..... ....................

Answer 7

To get out of depression, I see going for the trouble that started the depression, in the first place. work on the problem. the depression will then be gone, when the problem is gone.

This is just for some depression types, I guess. some may not have a way to correct the problem. for these I do not know, what will be best.

Answer 8

Seek comfort in whichever form works best. ie. Family, friends, activities, work, etc. Some people also find that drugs (prescription, legal, and illegal) work to help relieve their stress and/or depression.

Speaking as someone who's gone through depression and tried prescription meds: they did work for me. And, if it's not a deep depression or a recurring one, you will most likely not have to take meds for the rest of your life. I now no longer take meds, and have positive influences in my life by spending more time with family and friends and doing new/fun activities. I have been depression free for over 3 years now.

Bottom line, always see your doctor. It's nothing to be ashamed about, and there are plenty of options you can try. If nothing works, there is always counseling, which works for a lot of people, but takes longer.

Answer 9

I suffered from severe depression for nearly 2 years; there is no easy way out. See a "good" doctor, take your meds, let the doctor know if you feel any weird side effects because sometimes it takes a couple of meds to find the right one.
The is hope, there is light, and you can climb out of that dark hole - but not without professional help. Best wishes.
