People in a state of depression forgets that they are not the depression itself. They are just in a temporary state. They have merely sank into a state of mind where they have given up on their inner strength. There is an inner strength from an inner self no matter what state we are in, that we all can rediscover. This inner-strength is peaceful.

One way is to have a theme song recurring in our mind. You know the kind of tune that recurs in your mind on and on that you would even find it hard to get rid of? Do you have this powerful song in you that keep you going - ie. the music in you? Here is one. I can't understand what else the lyrics mean, but got the line "I've got the power!" well. I think that is enough to remember we all got the POWER!

If that doesn't work, get up and dance like Yoda did.

Have you ever been in the state of depression before ? Is depression emotional or physical aspect ? And last but not least do you have any good suggestion of curing it ?

ReplyDeleteI'm not a psychiatrist, so I can only give you my layperson opinion.
Doctors say that depression is due to chemical imbalances in the brain, therefore suggesting that it is 'physical', but I beg to differ. Thoughts come first. Thoughts then create the chemicals.
That said, I have never been in a depression. However, I have lived with one before and know their symptoms. I have 2 friends who are bi-polars (wide swings of moods). One is on drugs, the other fights it with his will power.
Cure against depression?
Try keeping a pet. I know someone who got cured that way.
