Are we becoming too comfortable with depression?

[ruykeri]

We have mastered the act of being depressed because it’s no longer new in our society. People now make it a common anxiety mood because of the continuous negativity around our mind. When our targets are not been met as human it tends towards o create a false dopamine around our feelings that we are not up to the challenge which affects our output, thereby causing us to react in that way. We have normalized depression in our social because it is a common feeling among everyone around us in the society.

This problem is increasing day by day because people consider depression normal. Due to lack of awareness and knowledge, people do not want to accept that this anxiety is a serious matter like other common diseases. And people feel very unskilled due to personal failure. They feel more upset by comparing themselves with others. This gradually becomes the cause of bigger mental problems. And the number of suicides around the world is increasing due to depression. In 2021, an estimated 727 000 people lost their lives to suicide. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in 15–29-year-olds. The reason for this kind of decision at this young age is overthinking. If you want to live well, you have to try to stay away from this mental illness, you have to control yourself, you have to always feel happy for the situation you are now . Because there are many people in society who are living in a worse condition than us, so you should think well as you are now .

This is a very wonderful topic, depression is real and people are really going through a lot. These days lot of people don't want to say it out when they are depressed, because we will criticize them even before hearing the whole story, we will call them weak, lazy or unserious, just because you were able to figure things out in your difficult moments doesn't make you stronger than others, so we should always get closer to them, try to keep them busy, encourage them and take them out sometime, it cost you nothing to put a smile on people's face. Make sure you take their mind off things that bothers them.

[Mikky02]

People no longer speak up because they feel it won't help them in most cases so they just keep things to themselves rather than telling people about it imagine telling your problems to people that gives a lot of advice but zero help why tell a problem to people that can't help rather make you feel inferior of yourself and it makes the whole situation more worse people who are depressed don't need advice but help to scale out of the situation

There may be situations in every person life when a person needs someone encouragement or support Because often we form an opinion about a person life by looking at him from the outside.We think that he does not meet people well or does not look very happy then he is probably arrogant Maybe he is struggling with some problem inside that we are not aware of Therefore it is wrong to form an opinion about him without knowing anyone We should be gentle and compassionate with such people.

Depression is actually not a good thing to experience however as you journey through the affairs of life , one is certainly banned to fall depressed in one way or the other. is going to happen. It can be financially, emotionally, mentally which ever way, but it can only get worse when much attention and listening ear not given from families or even those trusted friends . Most times is not out of negligence but familiarity , people these days has become too familiar and comfortable with depression such that, they can even say to someone under depression " are you the only one". It is not supposed to be so.

[roosbit]

Depression is something not to handle with kids gloves, this shit kills and worse off if you have nobody to talk to, nobody to confine in then it's something that will be in you with nobody knowing that you are broken.

In our world today, we have lots of depressed people living life like nothing is wrong. Depression can be as a result of many things like loneliness, financial pressure, peer pressure, stress and many others. Depressed people don't even speak up because the society don't place importance on it. Depression is real and we all go through it at different points in life. My question is why aren't we talking so much about depression and how to manage and help depressed people?

Many people in society suffer from depression, some express it, some tolerate it silently. People feel extremely depressed due to financial or mental stress and have to try to solve it themselves. But most people are affected by various addictive substances. Research says that most of the drug addicts suffer from depression in one way or another. This is not discussed much because everyone is busy preventing the crimes that are organized in the society due to depression. There is a relationship between the increase in unemployment problem in a country and the increase in drugs and crime in that country.

It is necessary to give importance to taking measures to solve the unemployment problem at the state level. As a social being you can suffer from depression, but you have to make arrangements to solve it yourself, you have to change your destiny through hard work. Tension and depression are harmful to everyone, for this the risk of premature death is gradually increasing. Think about everything simply, follow religious precepts and work hard to solve financial problems and develop yourself skillfully.

It is a hard time to be depressed I think. Sure, there are wars going on and some miserable people are out there trying to cause problems since misery loves company. However, stock markets are at all time highs, AI is simplifying everyone’s daily tasks. Vehicles are driving themselves. Mankind is about to build a base on the Moon and travel to Mars. There is so much to be excited about. Change the things you’re focusing on if you aren’t absolutely loving life right now. It is too short to be miserable. Choose happiness.

Depression is making people do a lot of things, people even go as far as committing suicide. A few weeks ago I guy in my country committed suicide because he was depressed, at first he he tried hanging himself but later changed his mind and decided to take poison instead.

As a matter of fact 70 percent of people living in my country are depressed, now tell me in a country where 70 percent of its citizens are depressed who is going to help whom. Even right now, I'm feeling depressed because I had a plan for how to achieve something but things didn't go as expected.

Its a very good idea diversifying our thinking to be inline with the way changes are  occurring in our society instead of overloading ourselves with depression that has know important to the upgradement of our lifes.
On daily basis incomparable changes are surfacing and we need to think towards adapting to this technological advancement but because we failed to know the importance of this changes we keep considering depression as an option when it is not supposed to be know matter the circumstances.  It will be of more importance if we concentrate on what will be beneficial to our and the world at large.

[Nwadiche]

Depression has killed so many people in my country due to bad leadership, right now the situations of the country has made made many men involved themselves in some evil acts also the ladies doing their own acts just to make a living. Depression has made alot of people think if God brought them into this world to suffer, depression has made me reason if they just gathered all the bad men and brought them together just to destroy my country due to how they are leading with no plans for hooe for the youths. Right now people hardly seen whom to help them when they found themselves in some issues, right now most people are living hopelessly due to depression.

Just want to point out that depression are being talked, some people just ignores it and doesn't care about it untill someone close to them lose the battle on their mind and let the depression win.
And also there are people who chooses to keep quiet on their depression cause they already experience being shutdown or ignored by the people they chose to talk to.

It can be said that people nowadays live with depression and it has become a habit within them and they are not giving importance to depression. Moreover, busy people will not be able to survive even by giving importance to depression because if they want to survive socially and economically, they will not be able to work by giving importance to depression. In the economic context of my country, there are many youths who are living with depression and they must give some time to overcome this depression but they cannot create any opportunity in the job field to give that time. In this way, thousands of youths in my country are working in the job field with depression and it can be said that depression has become a normal thing among them.

[Hispo]

I have the personal feeling that indeed people are getting too comfortable with depression around them. They see depressed people and they don't even pay any attention, or they believe that that is actually normal. In my personal opinion, I think that people are getting slowly desensitized to depression and other mental illnesses that others could be going through.

And unfortunately, people who suffer from depression get stigmatized.

They don't feel like they are supposed to talk about their depression or their feelings because they are going to look weak before others. So, they are also pushed or taught that they are supposed to just bite the bullet and continue working without paying attention to their own feelings. That is one of the main causes of people not caring about their own mental well-being in my opinion.

[Pearl_20]

I'm afraid we are, in a world where people are now taking it as joke and you don't even know the real people who needs help anymore some people have made it a joke to the extent that they tweet about these things on social media platforms so people who are depressed rather wallow alone than share or seek help from people who might see it as joke or starts judging them. We really need to talk more about depression at home, church, market place, work places so people know that it isn't okay at all.

I watch a video yesterday when I saw a lady at the rooftop trying to commit suicide and that's how a young man rushed to the top and held her very tightly, other people came out and was telling her not to kill herself, I'm pretty sure that she must have seeked help and she was told these things are happening to everyone considering how the economy is right now, some might even judge her and others will post her predicament on their socials, some are sick they won't say it till you hear that someone just slumped and died. We all have to watch out and be there for each other so if you see your friend, neighbour, colleges withdrawing, or someone who became extremely quite and you haven't heard from them for a long time, you check up on them, listen to them and don't judge, don't try to isolate them and make them feel unwanted, be very kind and polite, say words that will uplift them so they can feel loved and if it's a severe case get them help immediately.

People do not want to be too comfortable with depression, life happens. I think why most people fall into depression its the fear to say what's actually going on in their heads and mind is the fear of what people will think or say.
I'll take myself for example; before now whenever I get worried about something i do not share it with anyone cause I fear their response and that gets me into depression and BP going up. What actually got me out of depression was talking to someone about it. So people who falls into depression get that mindset or the courage to share their problems with someone they trust and that understands, and won't mock them. Try it and it's going to get better.

Depression affects a large number of people in society; some express it, while others put up with it in silence. Financial or mental stress causes people to experience extreme depression, which they must attempt to resolve on their own. However, the majority of people are impacted by a variety of addictive substances. According to research, the majority of drug addicts experience depression in one form or another. Because everyone is preoccupied with stopping the organized crimes caused by depression in society, this topic is rarely discussed. There is a connection between a nation's rising unemployment rate and its rising drug and criminal activity.

Taking action to address the issue of unemployment at the state level must be prioritized. You may experience depression as a social being, but you must make plans to overcome it on your own and work hard to alter your destiny. Everyone is negatively impacted by stress and depression, and as a result, the chance of dying young is steadily rising. Simplify everything, adhere to religious principles, put in a lot of effort to resolve financial issues, and cultivate your skills.

There are several reasons that lead to depression in our society and those reasons are on the rise daily. There are TV shows that enlighten people about the causes of depression and their curative measures but is this enough to end depression? I have noticed that even some people that talk about depression, that council victims of depression also get depressed at some point. Depression seems to be a personal thing influenced by external occurrences like disappointment, unfulfilled life and fears. We just have to caution ourselves against depression especially now when many people are already depressed. Worsening economy is a reoccurring factor, this is the aspect that may be solved by policies and surrounding neighborhood. But in the case of personal lives like relationships or religion or something very insignificant, how do you cure such, even rehabilitions don't solve this problem entirely because depression is personal and untill a person decides to fight off depression, no real help can be given.

I agree with your point that if we keep things to ourself sometimes it can make things worse. But talking to someone sometimes is not a solution always and it is not that easy. We live in society where people continually judge each other. So, when someone try to open up before someone, people might just them, they might get ignored, sometimes people firstly listen to the problems and then they used against them. Because of all of these bad experience a person might can lose trust and sometimes choose to remain silent whenever he has to face any difficulty or when he is struggling from inside.

Also not everyone who listen to is capable of giving good advice. Depression is not something that can be talked about and a person get healed quickly ,sometime they have to face judgement but professional support is necessary. Mental health struggle is not a weakness and we should not treat it like that people need to understand this they need patience and safe environment..

[Jegileman]

Many people are scared of speaking out because of stigmatisation. This has killed a lot of people and their mental health even before they reach the peak of their lives. Depression is real and it requires collective effort of all at all times. Both depressed and non depressed people needs to collaborate and continue fighting hard to educate, engage people in proper classes or engagements that talks about enlightening people about depression. Let them know that’s not the end for them and they can get to become a better version of themselves if they let go off what is bothering them that puts them in that state.

See, depression is caused by various reasons, it depends on the personal reasons of the person the most, maybe there is mental stress about his family, due to which the person can become depressed or someone can fall into depression due to financial problems. So the main reason for this depression is based on the danger and lack of the person, if you can use the money properly then you can get some relief from this worry.
However, depression takes away the happiness and peace of the person and creates additional pressure on the person, to get rid of this depression you have to control yourself first. And whether you want to earn income or not, you have to meet the needs of the family from it so that there is no additional pressure, then in this way you can get some relief from depression.
