Depression: How To Deal

[richardahorton2015]

ideally therapy/prescribed medication. short term - find safe space - space where you feel safe. distraction can help but only short term like gaming, tv, etc. exercise always helpful but needs mental energy to do. forcing yourself to do stuff you dont feel like doing makes doing stuff you dont like to do but have to easier in the future

[ch0sdi]

just make yourself pre occupied and busy

You need both spiritual and medical help dito. Go to the doctor/therapist. find a community as well to help you cope up with your mental health. goes both ways

SSRIs might help, ask your healthcare provider

1. Ask God for guidance.  

2. Jog/go outside (it clears my mind).  

3. Look at things one at a time. (Overwhelm fades when I tackle tasks step by step).

4. Always look at the bright side.  

5. Always remember there is still time.

6. Life is supposed to be hard, Cuz if it were easy you'd never grow.

7. Remember that no matter what happens, God is with you.

Workout, get sunlight, socialize, fake your confidence.

Go outside

Eat good food

Sleep well

These helped me.

Bruh this really helps. I really should lessen ung reliance sa bisyo na to too get by. Though I will admit that it doesn't hurt much on my younger days compared to now...I still wonder why the older I get and the more I understand the current dating pool its even sending me further deep into depressionville.

Giving yourself to a higher power is the first step as per tip 1 and 7.

Self reflection is always going to be the only way to move forward as per tip 3, 4, 5 and 6. This is all up to you and you have to stop being overwhelmed by your depression. You have to take tip 6 into heart.

The jog\walk part is definitely a must.

Depression often convinces us nothing matters and yet somehow still makes everything exhausting.  If at any point your thoughts turn toward harming yourself or feeling to just end it all, that’s not being dramatic, please seek professional help

Thanks for depression kasi nakapasok ako sa opisina ng boss ko. May ipapasa kasi ako sa kanya na report. Hindi ko alam kung paano buksan yung pinto. Hindi ko mahanap yung door knob. Kaya pala walang door knob kasi DePressYon. Ayun nakapasok ako dahil sa depressyon.  Sana di kayo na-depress sa story ko. 😊😊😊
