How to deal with depression @NigeriaNewsdesk
Depression is a nasty business that I would not wish on even the worst people. It takes away more from your life than anything in life. You lose focus. You can't find a reason to be happy. Here are a couple of tips that are sure to help you through the healing process
1. Pray. Find solitude in the promises of God.
2. Force yourself to spend time with positive friends and family members. Create a support system.
3. Focus on the positives, your accomplishments, and your goals.
4. Try and stay clear of spending too much time alone. Boredom is depression's playground.
5. Be open, honest, and let your loved ones know if you are struggling.
6. Seek professional help. No one is "too cool" to ask for help when in need.
7. Adopt a dog or cat that can be utilized as an emotional support animal.
8. Journal your thoughts and feelings on paper. Take note of your ups and downs.
9. Get outside! Don't spend all your days cooped up in your room or house.
10. Find a hobby. Engage in an activity that you can spend time enjoying.
Just in case you're not sure if what you're feeling is depression. Here's what depression feels like- You can't appreciate the highs — getting a new job or your college graduation, because nothing feels real. You can't process what is happening to you because you're not 100 percent sure it's happening at all.
