How to get over depression without counseling?

Ok I dont really have a solution to depression except for thinking differently… cognitive therapy… also something about depression, I know this seems hard and it wont cure it all, but you tend to get into this pattern of behavior that leads to avoiding situations and being alone, you need to get past that and do things (yes even if you dont want to) that involve other people… and you need to believe you will get over it. NOTHING lasts forever…

try ear plugs for the other thing

The best way to help with depression, is to write down all the things you love in your life.. its to do with being positive. Dont let things that annoy you get to you. also take up a new hobby for example yoga amazing to get rid of drepression or stress. Go to new places, clubs or bars and met new people.

the depression could be coming because you are emotionally tired. tell your family you cant sleep beause of the noise and ask them if they can b a bit quieter from a certain time. Also take a sleeping tablet. or have a long warm bath and cup of hot chocolate usually has you out like a light the min you hit the pillow =}

Hi,

As you know, depression can be very painful and is not easily beaten. So I would suggest, in no particular order:

1. Hard excercise

2. Drink lots of mineral water

3. Counselling

4. Understanding and support from close friends and family

5. If possible distance yourself from what it is that is causing the depression

6. CBT (See link: http://www.rcpsych.a… )

Try and share your feelings with others, do things you enjoy with people you enjoy, don’t waste energy changing those things that are out of your control to change.

Set yourself small goals to meet that will attack your depression in small manageable pieces, keep a record of your targets and celebrate when you meet your targets.

Don’t expect to beat depression easily or quickly and expect the occassional relapse.

Some people find that keeping a thought diary can also help to monitor progress.

I wish you luck with your struggle and suggest once again that if at all possible, you follow the path to recovery with someone you trust by your side.

Want to try something DIFFERENT ??? just do the following RIGHT NOW ;

1–chant ‘hari om’(hari as in HURRY & om as in HOME without the ‘H’) do this repetedly & a point will come where you will feel like you just want to close your eyes ( in that case case do it).At this point increase the number of O in om like HARI OOOM & then HARI OOOM & so on.when you chant this VEDIC MANTRA then remain silent (no thinking!,fidgeting,moving,etc) for an amount of time taken to chant this one mantra.this looks very very simple but its effects are very very very large (even ALBERT EINSTEIN would not had imagine it !!!). this is called ‘CHUP SADHANA’ & I learned it from ‘param pujya ASARAMJI bapu’.—>”www.asharam.org “ also read JEEVAN RASAYAN a book from —“http://hariombooks.goog… “ tihs will help remove all weakness from you,believe me millions have obtained benefits from it ,literally.

note: women durimg their periods are not to chant OM but they can chant HARI

this I say to you on basis of teachings of ‘param pujya ASARAMJI bapu’
