Reignless passions
Guys
I have came to realize that my depression and many of my anxieties were because of reignless passions.
I desired meaningless things ceaselessly, and fear not acquiring them. But that intense desire and fear make my life worse. The heppy moments lose their substance because of the greed of more "delusional" happiness, and sad times intensify the fear of upcoming perceived sadness.
In the end, solution lies in taming my desires and reigning in my passions. Peace comes from within.
I hope my thoughts provide your brains with food for inspiration.

This sounds quite buddhist. I think that there is a lot to be gained by being more aware of our urges and where they lead us. I find it quite painful to confront, because it requires honesty regarding the self and expectations.
I wish everyone success in their journey to peace.
The Buddhist or Mystic approach is quite extreme when it comes to desires.
I think that we should control our desires in a reasonable manner, so that the humiliation of non fulfilment can be avoided.
@MidnightListener7 Nice point. I think every choice has depression. Thank you for your idea. It's like a movie I used to watch, "Too much is not good."
