Goodbye Folks by Nandini Gupta https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f Final Blog on Depression en-us 2017-12-20 07:42:56 UTC 2023-01-31 03:47:28 UTC hello@padlet.com What is depression? nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217422468 "Depression is a common and serious medical disorder that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act."
To me, depression is when certain life situations and circumstances become so serious that it causes someone to lose interest in life and feel worthless. It is when they have no hope, no aspirations and no dreams. You can't trust anyone anymore and have lost all moral support. You think you have eyes looking at you from every corner and you can't stare back at them. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but you can't reach out. You are TRAPPED.]]> 2017-12-20 07:45:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217422468 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217424069 2017-12-20 07:57:52 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217424069 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217424285 2017-12-20 07:59:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217424285 Why is it caused? nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217424630 Research suggests that long-term glitches such as unemployment, living in an abusive and uncaring relationship, work stress etc. is the main cause of depression. Recent problems for instance loss of a beloved family member can trigger depression, as well. Several folks fear depression due to their family roots or genetic transfers. For example, if one family member has faced depression, one might have a high probabilty of facing this problem. However, this is not always the case. Some folks might face depression due to their personality traits such as having a low self-esteem, being self-conscious, always criticsing oneself and a tendancy to worry a lot. Also, the stress and worry of recovering from a long term disease might cause dissatifaction, ultimately leading to depression. Last but not he least, drugs and alcohol intake can be both a result of depression or lead to depression. Even things encompassing poor sleep habits, diet problems and 
birth control pils can cause major depression. From the scientific perspective, depression can be caused due to a chemical imbalance; such as too little or too much quantity of brain chemicals.

There is a loss of interest in one’s daily activities or hobbies such as playing, singing, dancing, drawing, reading or cooking. There might also be a significant weight loss or gain. A change of at least five percent occurs within a month. Depression symptons also include insomnia or waking up at the crack of dawn or oversleeping. Feeling agitated, restless or violent can be clear signs, as well. One might be hot-headed and short tempered and might lack patience. There is a loss of energy and self-loathing is quite profound. One always criticises himself for past acts or deeds. Concentration problems and body pain also occur frequently. All these examples point out to depression in individuals.

Exercise and therapy are other options, as well. Cultivating more social connections is a very effective means to solve depression. Ask for help to your close family members or talk to a trusted friend. Asking for help is very important and is not a sign of weakness. It also does not mean that you are a burden on them. Sometimes just talking face to face with a person can be very helpful. The more you talk about it and get it out of you, the better it is. All these treatment options take time, so make sure to be persistent and be committed. ]]> 2017-12-20 08:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217426374 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217428625 2017-12-20 08:26:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217428625 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217428959 2017-12-20 08:28:32 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217428959 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217429468 2017-12-20 08:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217429468 nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217429995 2017-12-20 08:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217429995 What role did my blogs play in destroying depression? nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217430100 When I saw the number of people around me being affected by depression, anxiety and low self-esteem, I made up my mind to stop this. I combined my hobby of writing blogs with this topic and went on to create ten blogs to solve this problem. Each blog had a different format and style, so that it could be interesting for the viewers and would catch their eyes. Each blog motivated and inspired folks to adopt a new lifestyle that is healthy and happy in the form of quotes, poems, real-life stories, songs, videos and much more. ]]> 2017-12-20 08:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217430100 What is your 'new life' going to be like? nandinig1 https://padlet.com/nandinig1/zjopq318qn8f/wish/217432705 Once you get rid of depression, you will enjoy life to the fullest.
