how to make depression go away for good?
I just lost my job because of depression. I resigned before I got fired because I feel like I can't be productive anymore. Now, I'm afraid of my depression. What if I will lose my next job because of it? I want to chase my dreams but these feelings are stopping me from doing anything :'(
Hello. As a person dealing with depression, I understand your feelings. I'm not here to tell you it will get better and that everything will be okay because the truth is, sometimes it doesn't get better and it's not okay. However, depression doesn't last forever, it comes and goes. It is important to develop coping mechanisms to deal with depression. It is also important to recognize the signs when you are slipping back into depression so that you can be proactive. For me, I make lists of tasks I have to do in a day and complete those tasks. That way, even if I am depressed it won't ruin my life.
@HappyGoLucky7 thank you very much. I tried doing what you said. I even posted it on my wall but it's really difficult. There are times when I can do it, but most of the times, I really just can't. My mind is so full of everything that I feel like all my energy is gone, almost everyday. I am jealous of your will power. Did you consult a therapist for your depression?
