“In your lifetime, you will find and meet one person who will love you more than anybody you have ever known & will know. They will love you with every bit of energy & soul. They will sacrifice, surrender and give so much that it scares you. Someday you’ll know who that is.”
What people never understand is that depression isn’t about the outside; it’s about the inside.
It’s difficult to help a loved one with depression. Especially, when you don’t know what to do. It can be hurtful seeing a friend or family member struggle throughout the day. At times you may want them to snap out of it, but trust me it is not as easy. Telling a loved one to “get over it” or “just do this” will not help the situation. This will cause them to become distant. Here are nice things to do for someone who has depression:
The eating habits of those with depression changes, and most of the time they don’t pick healthy meals. Food directly impacts how they feel and by eating the correct foods their mood will improve. (mood boosting foods)
Depressed individuals don’t produce enough vitamin D because of the lack of sun exposure. A couple of minutes outside can help them immensely.
Remember depression zaps people’s energy and cleaning can be impossible. A messy room will bring down the depressed person even more. Make it fun by…
There is no rule that says you have to be doing a million things at once. No where in the nonexistent life handbook is there a statement that tells you to worry about everything that has yet to happen.
Once you begin to analyze the situation, you’re creating an imaginary outcome.
You can’t control everything, and you can’t go back in time and change anything. These are not bad things.
Trusting in something bigger than you let’s you focus on your tasks. You don’t have to worry about the how. You don’t have to get overwhelmed with the details.
Look for the lesson. There is beauty in horrible situations if you look at it objectively and you always have the option of removing yourself from my situation or person that drains your energy and brings you down - it’s liberating!
We tend to think of learning a new skill or “going back to school” as something you’d do when looking to change careers, or to upgrade within your current one.
Here are 19 awesome places to learn the critical skills that will change your life:
Keep reading
1. Value and respect the fact that you are a totally unique individual, with your own destiny to fulfill. Believe in who you are, what you think and believe, your gifts and talents, and what you have to offer to those around you.
2. Refuse to give into negative feelings of anxiety, self doubt or insecurity. In fact, “fake it till you make it” is often good advice … So, ignore how you feel, and act the way you want to be. Choose to switch off the old tapes that keep playing in your head, try to visualize your goals, and then push on and seek to reach them.
3. Don’t pay any attention to what others think about you. The most important judgment should be yours, and yours alone. If you live in constant fear of what others think about you, it will only hold you back from realizing your potential. Also, you’re not a clone of others as each of us is different. Don’t be afraid to be unique or to stand out against the crowd.
4. Accept that you have good points, and areas for growth. We’re all a mix of different qualities, and flaws, and traits. We all make mistakes – it’s what you do with them matters. So embrace the fact you’re human and won’t always get it right.
5. Also, develop a tough skin and don’t take insults personally. Look back and laugh – don’t cower – or criticise yourself. It won’t help if you’re sensitive or worried all the time. It’s better to forgive yourself, and then move on again.
6. Develop your ability to think creatively. Try out those new ideas, and choose to live outside the box.
7. Seek to enjoy this moment, and to live life in the present. Be grateful for the small things, and savour all you have.
