What to Do with Depression?
Depression can be an
opportunity for growth in disguise, it can be
short lived or progressively intense for longer periods of time, but
one thing we should try to avoid is medicating it without first trying
to discover what it symbolizes. Different types of
Depression will
requires different treatment to suppress it.
In much of today’s modern and Westernized culture we look for quick
solutions. We isolate and classify every bit of information we
encounter rather than looking at things in terms of a larger
perspective. When it comes to physical, emotional or mental discomfort
this has come to mean looking for simple or general solutions to
whatever ails us. If you get a headache, take some aspirin. If you get
depressed, go to the doctor and he/she will give you some
‘
anti-depressants’ or he/she may
giving you aspirin too? There are
plenty of solutions for the treatment of various types of
Depression.
Treating symptoms rather than looking deeper to root causes or at the
image of whole mind-body health tends to… treat symptoms and little
else. Symptoms are the body’s way of telling us that it needs something
it’s not getting, that it’s getting too much of something, or that it’s
fighting off an infection, in which case some symptoms can help us
determine what it is that will assist the body in its fight.
When we get the flu or a cold we sometimes find that we suddenly begin
craving juice and things with vitamin C. Sometimes when we’re ill we
lose our appetites in order to be able to focus all the body’s energy
on fighting the infection. We use a huge amount of resources during
food digestion. Lack of appetite is a very effective way to redirect
the body’s natural defensive powers.
Depression is also a
sign, a sign that we’re not happy. That’s pretty
obvious, but think about it for a moment. If some deeper layer of
ourselves is trying to make us realize that we’re unhappy is it
likelier that taking some happy pills is going to make us truly happy,
or taking the time to reconsider just what it is that makes us feel
satisfied? In this way
depression can
be very much the hidden
opportunity for growth. When we’re forced to reconsider our life
choices, daily activities and the like we’re apt to discover or revisit
different ways of thinking and experiences that fit better with the
person we are today. Adopt a healthy and active lifestyle can set your
life to an enriching life.
With the exception of extreme cases where individuals truly feel they
might harm themselves –where anti-depressant drug therapy may help give
some extra ‘space’ to tackle
depression
in manageable
packets—
depression should be seen as
the heralding of a burst of change
or certain circumstances that created such
depression.
Change, after
all, is the only constant. We feel death pangs as we outgrow old
perspectives and ways of living; just as night unfolds to the next day,
depression always
yields the birth of new happiness, fresh ideas about
what is satisfying and how to manifest these inspirations in our lives.
Depression if not
handled properly. may give rise to more complex
issues. In the meantime go ahead and let yourself feel bummed or
downright crushed and hollow. These are the ‘little deaths’ that signal
our personal evolutionary milestones or our break-throughs.
Know as much as possible about the various types of
Depression and what
are the best method to direct
Depression
to Freedom. Live life at it's
fullest.
