If you are depressed, you must ask for help even though it may seem hopeless. With time, effort, and support, a person with this disease can not only live their life as it was before, but maybe even live a more peaceful life. There are several types of medication, therapy, and counseling for people who are depressed. It's not easy to fight depression and fight your negative thoughts, but it's very important to do. Becoming physically active and exercising, getting out and socializing, and meditation and relaxation help give people more self-respect and feel better about themselves.
Depression is a disease of the body and mind.
It takes over the mind, yet causes pain for your body as well. It is very serious. But if you recognize the warning signs of depression in time, and get help, you can enjoy life again. I thought it would never end, that I would keep spiraling downward in the vicious vortex that my life had become. Things are going my way.
