Fight Depression ?? Just 5 Ways !!

If you feel depressed, it is best to do something about it - depression does not just go away by itself. Besides getting help from a doctor or therapist, here are 5 things you can do to feel better.

1. Exercise. Take the 15 - to 30-minute fast walk every day - or dance, jog, or bike if you want. People who are depressed may not feel like being active. But make yourself do it anyway (ask a friend to exercise with you if you need to be motivated.) Once you get into the habit of exercise, it will not take long to notice a difference in your mood.

In addition to getting aerobic exercise, some yoga poses can help relieve feelings of depression. Try downward-facing dog or a leg-up-wall pose (you can find on the website yoga poses). Two other aspects of yoga - breathing exercises and meditation - can also help people with depression feel better.

2. Maintenance yourself with good nutrition . Depression can affect appetite. One person may not feel like eating at all, but others may be eating too much. If depression has affected your eating, you should be extra careful to get the right food. proper nutrition can affect a person's mood and energy. So a lot of eating fruits and vegetables and get regular meals (even if you do not feel hungry, try to eat something light, like a piece of fruit, to keep you going).

3. Identify the problem, but do not dwell on them. Try to identify situations that have contributed to your depression. When you know what makes you feel blue and why, talk with a friend who cares. Talking is a way to release feelings and to receive some understanding. If no one says, devote your heart to the journal work well together.

Once you air out your thoughts and feelings, turn your attention to something positive. Taking action to solve the problem. Ask for help if you need it. Feeling connected with friends and family can help relieve depression. (This also can help them feel there is something they can do not just watch you get hurt.)

4. Express yourself. With depression, one's creativity and sense of fun may seem blocked. Exercise your imagination (painting, drawing, doodling, sewing, writing, dancing, composing music, etc.) and you not only get those creative juices flowing, you also loosen some positive emotions. Take time to play with friends or pets, or do something nice for yourself. Find something to laugh about - a funny movie, maybe. Laughter helps lighten your mood.

5. Looking at the bright side. Depression affects a person's mind, making everything seem dismal, negative, and despair. If depression has you only see the negative, try to notice the good things in life. Try to notice one thing, then try to think of one another. Consider your strengths, gifts, or blessings. Most of all, do not forget to be patient with yourself. Depression takes time to heal.
