The black hole in everyone- depression. For current century, it is normal for people to have depression. They worked hard for their future and forget about their life. Some of them have no idea what's going on in their life. They have plans but it is ambiguous. They are likely to stress about their messy life and their messy career pathway.
Depression is an unhealthy mental or imbalance chemistry in your brain that makes you feel less interest in your life. They hunt you down, abuse and change your mind into something that is only black and white. They will make you lose yourself, lose your soul, and even your love one. You can't even control yourself even if you struggle with it. There are only bad thoughts until someone you really love or psychologist goes into your life and help you to balance up the chemicals in your brain. Some of them said counselling doesn't really help so do the treatment like eat medicines or ECT for severe cases. There is no exact treatment for depression. It only you can step out from that circle to help yourself.
I believe that there are a devil and an angel live in everybody. When you are sad, the devil is the one who wins the competition. If you feel happy, then angel wins. It is the same with depression, if you control your emotion, you win. If you let the emotion takes over you, you lose. Think out of the circles is what they usually mention in real life. By saying that, do they really know how the depression people feel? Hey, if people really understand and apply it in their life, all the mental health hospitals are a wastage of cost.
Most of the reason for a person to get depression is stress. Not all people can manage their stress properly. Like I said, if you let your emotion control you, you are one step nearer to have mental problem. Stress is something that you couldn't see but you can feel it through external invisible force. Mild stress from life will bring you one step closer to depression. For example, the couples break up their relationship. You can't control all the bad thoughts and stress at one shot. Break them down, digest little by little, and you will be 50 feet apart from depression. Stress is something that you gotta let them go and relieve it under any way. As long as you settle it, you will be fine. Feel stress? Do something that makes you happy or chill your mind as long as it diverts your attention.
Second major reasons for depression for nowadays are low self-esteem. "Hey girl, you're gorgeous." "I know what you mean, don't lie to me, I'm fat and ugly dude. Go away, no one likes me." Self- esteem is important in our life. It makes you feel good about yourself and believe in yourself. If a person's self-esteem is low, she will deny everything, as like she is the worst in this world. When you have low self-esteem, you wouldn't want to talk to anyone, even your parents or friends. The only thing in your mind is "nobody accepts me, I can't trust anyone". As time goes, you will be alone and not socializing with anyone. You will start to do something strange which is out of your expectations and you don't know you're doing it until people tell you about that. By the time, it is too late for you to go back, but look back at what you did, you would like to give yourself a big slap.
Other than medications and some diversion treatment, there is no exact treatment for this black hole. People can't change your mind if you don't let them in to your life. Most of the people who "recovered" from depression said that depression is something serious and you will never ever want to try it. Once you get out from it, you will never wanna go back. It is scary. It is a devil who stole your soul and mind. If you help yourself, you will be the winner.
In a nutshell, depression is not something you really wanna involve in. It is something that's scarier than death. Death has the end but the end of depression is something to do with you yourself. What if you lost your mind and can't control yourself one day? Love yourself, hug yourself, be nice to yourself. Talk to your friends or parents if you don't feel good. You can rant everything you want to. It doesn't matter if they are weird, they are strange or cringe, as long as you speak up, you will feel a lot better than keeping them in your small heart. In this society, no one is going to live alone. We share everything includes the workload and the missions of your life. Live your life. Do what you want to do. Get a healthy life style and a healthy mind.
