With the increasing daily pressures of our lives it is very easy to become down and depressed. You will see that many people are often feeling low, sorry for themselves and basically very unhappy.We have to find a way of putting ourselves back on our feet and enjoy being alive. One of the things that many depressed people should look into is the way in which they approach life. Being negative and

When you’re depressed you feel lonely and good friends are highly recommended to help and provide you support.But when you’re depressed you also feel the “need” to be with someone in a sexual relationship, because many times that makes you feel better. This is what you MUST know in those cases.It is really hard for a non-depressed person to be with a depressed person, as they usually do NOT

As I mentioned on my last article it might NOT be easy to find the right Medication for you, the one that will work on your symptons and make you feel better.Although not easy it is something that you SHOULD do - maybe I should have said MUST do! Remember, depression is treatable!The fact that one medication didn't work for your depression does NOT mean that no drug will help you, it is just that

I've had people asking me what helped me, which medications I have tried, which worked, which didn't.I'm definitely not a doctor and would NEVER tell you to go one way or another, so I am going to say here is just my own experience.The first time I was prescribed a medicine by a doctor he gave me the famous "happy pill" or Prozac. Didn't help me at all as I had lots of side effects and couldn't

I think that the first time I experienced depression (at least that I am aware of) was when I was 23 years old.I had broken up with my boyfriend for a month when I found out that I was pregnant.The relationship was horrible (reason why it ended), the timing was horrible (I was still studying, "jobless" and "relationshipless")... But once I found out that I was pregnant my mother instincts kicked

by Hector Milla Having a person you know and love have the depressions is a depressing situation as well. Watching the wallow in their loneliness and sadness can cause a great rift between the two of you. This comes from fear as well as the misunderstanding of the needs and symptoms of the depressed person.Knowing the causes of depression allows us to prevent such from happening to us or to our

MeditationWell, I do have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep. I have a very active brain and I haven’t found the ON/OFF button yet. This last week has been especially bad.So I was at work talking to a friend about it and the subject of meditation came up again. I mean again because I have tried meditating a few times, but I either found it too boring to continue, or I simply couldn’t focus
