10 Ways to Notice and Recover.

Acceptance

As someone who was depressed and sad at a moment of their time, I want to give tips on how to handle that state of mind. And the first way on how is, accepting that your sad and angry maybe its guilt, or your insecure about your looks, or maybe it's even something common like the way you treat others or how they treat you. Those are just a few of the hundreds of reasons why you might be depressed or angry at yourself and others.

Before we go into how to handle it, most of the time people only think there not depressed and there overreacting, but if you are sad all the time because of whatever reason you are, that is depression, so before we go into here take a few deep breaths and ask yourself "why? why am I here reading this, why am I sad? am I even sad? should I be concerned from myself?" or any other question that was not asked here. In this book were going to go over the 10 most common ways people are depressed and how to solve them. But before we do you need to accept these feelings are natural and you're not alone, everyone is depressed at one point in their life's.

 wither it's physical or emotional you have to accept your depressed and sad and that you need help, not a lot of people solve their depression on their own, because every time they calmed down the thing that causes that depression reminds them why they are sad and it's a cycle. So, before you enter this book whenever that machine that causes your brain to go anxiety mode and sad mode remind yourself people go through the same thing, and so many of them survive this horrible state, and your brave enough to try and fix it and not end it.

So, if you hide from it or try to fight it it's still going to remind you why your sad or angry or both, so instead of fighting it or hiding from it you have to stand up to it to handle it that doesn't mean hold it in, say "even tough people cry, and I'm sad and il going to let myself be sad so i can start having the bravery of fixing myself"  and sometimes it fights back and tells you you're not good enough or how weak you are and it pushes you down, but if you're brave enough to stand up to it your brave enough to fix it. Even if you're the one that caused the problem and depression your sorry enough to try. And it can tell when you're lying to tell the truth and how you feel. because it does follow you in it will try and push you down more.

Now that that is out of the way were going to be working on exercises to help you grow once you accepted your depressed.

we're going to work on a breathing exercise

The box technique

the box technique works for a lot of people on helping their heart rate slow down or helping anxiety, let's start. picture a rectangle, start at the top of the rectangle, hold your breath for 5 seconds, or any time you prefer, 1..2..3..4..5 the top part is done, now the right side exhale for 1..2..3..4..5 okay bottom part now inhale through the mouth, 1..2..3..4..5, left part now, exhale through the mouth 1..2..3..4..5, do that until that feeling goes away.

Okay, now I'm going to give you productive ways to handle depression

1. exercise

exercise helps A LOT on depression because it gives you a goal to set on when your sad or a routine to keep up with, even if it's in your home, at the gym, at a friend's house, anywhere, because you're not focusing on how sad you are your focusing on improvement and progress.

2. reading

you could be rereading a book or buying a new one or reading one online just like this one, either way it gives you something to do, you're picturing that world, those words are in your head, and it gives you something to distract about when you're feeling down.

3.starting a business

starting a business gives you work to do, not only does it give you confidence it gives you skill, because your putting time into something great, and starting it gives you pleasure and applause, because the more you put work in the better it gets.

4. making friends

making friends is good! even if it is online, but if you are going to use this strategy make sure their real friends and not fake, because that's what some people do so don't ignore signs if there fake, but other than that this is a very good strategy!

5. quitting habits

quitting habits is hard, but that's why its good! if its somking,vaping,or even bullying try and quit if it's bad, and it might be hard but it gives you something to wake up for and something to put your mind to.
