Suggestions to Overcome Depression?
Question by Wind Up Bird: Suggestions to overcome depression?
It has been about a week since I found out that my boyfriend of two years has been cheating on me, and my life is currently in shambles. I’ve only left my bed four times in the past week, and I have absolutely no energy or concentration to get anything done. Whenever I try to do anything active, I am overcome by lethargy and I feel the need to get back into bed and sleep. I have no appetite, and I keep losing weight. Please give me suggestions on how to overcome this. I can’t allow my grades to slip and my life to fall apart because of a mistake my boyfriend made.

You need to get out and just have a good time. If that’s go on a date with another guy or having a fun time out with your friends. You will get over this i promise. Same thing happened to me. If this doesn’t help talk to your doctor about anti depressants.

I know exactly what you are going through and how that feels because I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety in high school by doctors. I was put on meds to “help” me deal with the depression. It only got worse because the meds numbed me from the world. Eventually my body rejected the medication causing me to go into a nervous breakdown. I didn’t eat or sleep for over a week. I hit rock bottom. I never gave up through all the pain, but went on a mission to find the answers to the questions you are now asking. Today I no longer have depression.
The words I use right now are to be taken very seriously, so read them with an open heart and mind. ONLY continue to read this if you are serious and ready to make a change in your life! I have helped dozens of people eliminate depression completely from their lives, with absolutely NO drugs. Here is what I have discovered, from years of research and real life application, that will help you:
I will start by telling you what depression is not and the misconceptions about it. Know that you are not broken and NOTHING is wrong with you, no matter what the so called “experts” or others tell you!!! You MUST understand that now and know it to be true even though it may not seem like it, yet. Remove from your vocabulary and mind that you are depressed or a depressed person. Our society has become obsessed with labeling people and putting them into boxes. Show me depression, can you hold it in your hands? No, because it’s not a real thing, therefore you can change it whenever you decide to now. Depression is merely a state of mind, just like anger, sadness, happiness, joy, love, etc. EVERYONE experiences it least once in their life. You have gotten really good at mastering the art of Focus. I know this because you can focus on all the crap that is happening around you and in your life.
Just like you can focus on the crap, you can make a conscious decision to STOP and focus on all the amazing things in the world and your life, right now.
1) Make a list of all the people who you love and who loves you, even though you may not feel it, yet.
2)Think of a time in your life where you felt loved or had love towards something or someone. Associate yourself to that moment, right now, and step into the memory. What do you see? What do you hear? What do you feel? How were you breathing? Breath that way now. Good… Now think of another time in your life and repeat the process. Do this at least twice everyday!
3)Get the book Unlimited Power or the program Get the Edge by Tony Robbins. These will change your life forever.
Here are some things you will want to eliminate from your life today! If you watch the news, STOP IT, because the news is all about ratings and they sell people negative crap. Cut out watching horror films or scary movies and replace them with positive, uplifting ones. Do not listen to rap or any music with a negative, depressing message and replace it with music that moves your soul.
I can go on and on, but I think you are beginning to get the picture. This is just the tip of the iceberg. If what I am saying resonates with you and makes sense, let me know and I will continue. Or if it’s not for you at this time, that is fine with me too. I have nothing to sell or gain. Everything I say is out of love and the need to share the truth.
