I think when we're down we wanna die, It's the easy way out. We don't want to die of course but we feel like something is wrong with us, so maybe we're dying. It feels easier to give up but we're too smart for such thoughts, so we feel depressed about our thoughts.
I've been researching how to fix depression and they say:
exercise, I use to walk everyday for 30mins not for health but because it made me happy before starting work. I stopped 5 years ago because I meet my husband who is anti-exercise. I've been down for about 4 years. So I've had a light bulb moment. Start walking again.
I've done my research and we need to:
-exercise each mday (the sun is good for depression also - vitamin D)
- Eat: fruit for snacks
- stop coffee replace with green tea (that will be hard for me)
- put more chillies, oily fish, bannas and green veges in our meals
- drink more water
and if that doesn't help try accupturne and st johns wort.
Try it with me. They aren't big changes.
