A hobby a day keeps the doldrums away.
Phyllis McGinley,an American author and poet
I was listening to Linkin Park’s song ‘Heavy’ featuring Kiira and I totally agreed with its lyrics.Indeed,we all have those days when our mood changes and suddenly,we are sad for no obvious reason.This condition is called mild depression.
It’s hard to diagnose it since it feels just like our regular emotions.Some of the common symptoms include:
- Irritability
- Experiencing negative thoughts
- Feeling unusually tired
- Feeling hopeless,self loathing
- Feeling extremely sad,usually on the verge of tears
- Feeling unmotivated
- Wanting to be left alone
This mental condition can escalate to moderate or even severe depression if not well handled.
Enjoy fun thrills
Keeping the condition to yourself is NEVER an option!Consulting a pyschologist or a mental therapist is usually a good start to assess the degree of the condition and offer professional help.
You may also opt to share with a trusted friend, family or friend who will listen to you.
However, many people find that hobbies really help in dealing with depression.Doing something you actually enjoy is the key to true happiness.These thrills of life reduce stress and kills our bad ‘vibes'(moods).
So,get interested in something.Shake yourself awake today and develop a hobby.Live life with gusto!
