How you deal with depression?

[maytinhvinh95]

i think you should think less, talk to you more...

[Glemiv]

I will focus and just do what I love, somethings like shopping, buy and go for travel with my buddies, this is how I deal with my depression, how about yours ? Share it out please.

[romlex]

I focus on my hobbies to swim and climb mountains. My way is to stop remembering stressful things, it's not easy but you have to turn your attention to something that makes you happy.

[XeBaass]

I usually go in my room and close all the door and start crying because at that moment only crying help me out from this difficult mood.

Depending on the diagnosis and the severity of the symptoms of depression, there are several types of treatments that might be recommended by your health care professional.

[stafdite]

Psychotherapy

This approach is based on developing a trusting, safe and understanding environment for you to talk through your thoughts and feelings with the help of a trained counsellor.

[puncsing]

Treatment options include medication, some form of psychotherapy and counselling, and in more severe cases of depression or where other forms of treatment have proved ineffective, possibly ECT (Electro Convulsive Therapy).

[dmitriko]

The newer SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) have fewer side effects so may be a more favourable option for the elderly as older people tend to be more susceptible to the effects of any medication.

[kalinina]

If antidepressants are prescribed it is important that the doctor is aware of exactly what medications the individual is currently taking, both prescribed and over the counter preparations, to avoid any adverse interactions that might occur with antidepressants.

[tiocen]

The most common include various types of psychotherapy and anti-depressant medications, or perhaps a combination of these two approaches. For very severe cases of depression, more drastic measures can be employed.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Sometimes negative thoughts and ideas or the way you think about things can contribute to feelings of depression. This type of therapy helps you to look at these in detail in order to change the way you think about them, so that you change your behaviour accordingly.

[konstanti]

By sharing your experiences either on a one to one basis or perhaps in a group therapy session with people in a similar situation or with similar feelings, can allow you the necessary emotional support you need to enable you to cope. This type of treatment lends itself well to mild and moderate types of depression sometimes alongside medication.

[greensy]

By focussing on specific difficulties that are happening in your life now, new ways of coping and dealing with situations can be identified. It is particularly helpful for anxiety related and panic disorders and disorders affecting behaviour, for example, obsessive compulsive disorder and eating disorders, amongst others.

I depression is a state of mind that will always want you to be alone, it will always tend to keep you away from other people, people who can help you fight it.

In my case whenever I find myself becoming depressed, I ensure that I go out,  I try as much as possible to meet up with friends, even if I don't get to share what I am going through with them, it helps me see life in new light and give me the strength to keep on fighting.

Problems will always suffice through out our journey in life,  overcoming these challenges will give us always sense of accomplishment.

Persistent depression may require the use of anti-depressants for a period of time. Just like all treatments, they are not an overnight fix and can take anything up to several weeks for the effect of the medication to be felt, and just like all medications they can carry side effects.

[fulnid]

There are many kinds of anti-depressants available but the main types fall into the categories of:

• Tricyclics – including Anafranil
• Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors – SSRIs like Prozac

[seramela]

Lithium Carbonate has a mood stabilising effect and is sometimes prescribed to people with severe depression; however, it is dangerous if the levels in the blood become too high so constant medical checks and blood tests are a necessity.

[onursul]

Medicines:
Serotonin and Noradrenaline Reuptake Inhibitors – SNRIs such as Endronax
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors – for example, Manerix and Nardil

[HarrietKnowles10]
