Signs Of Depression And Coming Out Of It

You feel depressed when you lack happiness and optimism about the
possibilities that you have and a constantly negative consciousness and
vision is produced. You lose hope. In depression you lack an interest in
things. You are sensitive to criticisms, even if they are very little. You
feel sadness, impatience, a lack of perspectives. You try to reach
satisfaction through material means, like, for example, eating too much,
eating sweet things, etc.

You get depressed because you remember past errors; because you need the
experience of love in life; because you have developed the habit of seeing
only the negative in each situation, without sensing that a positive side
exists. The imagination behaves in a negative way; it is weakening,
depressing and even destructive. Nothing seems attractive to you and you
feel unmotivated.

To get out of this state it is important to accept yourself; keep a mental
state of a detached observer; don't allow the mind to cling to depressing
thoughts and tune it into the positive aspects of life. Sometimes
negativity and weakness have overwhelmed you to such a point that in order
to get out of that state you need a "bombardment" of positivism: go on a
spiritual retreat or holiday to a suitable destination; surround yourself
by good company; attend a course of personal development; get out of that
state in which you are closed into yourself. Take the step. Nobody can do
it for you.
