WHAT COULD YOU DO FOR SOMEONE FIGHTING DEPRESSION?


Many studies have shown, and it is also a very popular belief that as the years are passing children are becoming smarter and smarter as the generations are passing. A kid born three years after the other would be smarter that the latter. This in turn gives rise to a good amount of competition between the children. This competition can be academic, like in studies, sports, other activities and it is found that it is usually the parents that pressurise the children to person better or be the best in the class and school. This in turn makes the children bitter against each other and they start seeing leisure activities like a competition too. It is good for children to have competitive spirit, but not to an extent where they turn sore towards each other.
Childhood is that phase of our lives that we cherish the most and have enjoyed the most. The innocence that a human has back then sadly starts to fade away as they grow older and the burden of choosing career paths starts taking over, killing the innocent child within the human. With the daily routine to meet ends meet and to earn bread, the child gets lost somewhere to just never return. Dreams, hopes aspirations begin to seize and the big ball of reality hits our lives. Responsibilities of family, pressure from peers and society has many a times led people to choose what they do not want and give up on what they love the most and what they felt would be the best option for them. This in turn leads to them feeling helpless and worthless, pushing them into a vicious cycle a self-doubt and low self-esteem. There are many centres that provide depression counselling in Mumbai.
People might ace what they do in their professional lives, they might be successful and flying heights in terms of career, but all this is going to be unworthy if they are not happy on the inside. If they are not happy with what they do, the success they get doesn’t count anymore. This cycle of feeling unworthy can even push someone into depression. A psychologist providing depression therapy has suggested that many clients they get come to them with identity crisis. Where even though they have had a steady career, they feel insecure about themselves and want to find their true selves. Depression can happen to anyone, anytime. It need not have a specific reason. A person can feel that way without even any actual reason.
Depression does not happen to just adults. Kids can be affected by this condition too. Recognising the symptoms and getting help on time through child therapy is what the parents or the guardian of the child should do. It is important to look out for these symptoms in kids as they are never really going to understand what it is happening to them. Talk to your child if they start staying oddly isolated and silent, if they start throwing tantrums they have never thrown before or if they complain of not feeling happy all the time. Handing kids is a sensitive issue, which is to be done wisely.

MENDING AND HEALING RELAITONSHIPS

There is no relationship in the world that does not face problems between the two people. When we talk about a relationship, we have to keep in mind that we are talking about two different individuals coming together to form a beautiful bond of love. Two people with different ideologies and different thinking striving to be accommodating of each other’s needs and maintaining a balance in their own. This system of accommodating and acceptance is going to have a little bit of friction leading to minor fights. But what is important, is how the two people make up after the fight and whether they accept and move on from the incident. Sometimes, a fight or a situation can be so gruesome that both or one of the individuals cannot let go of it. That is when they need the help of a relationship advisor who may be a friend close to the family, a family member or a professional who is trained to deal with couples’ issues on a daily basis. This relationship advisor’s main aim is to first...

COMBATTING DEPRESSION WITH FAMILY’S HELP

Feeling sad is normal. We all feel sad from time to time. The reasons for this sadness may vary. Death or loss of a close one, break up, failure, fight, are some of the instances that make us sad as humans. But eventually, we learn to accept the facts of what has happened, and we move on. Gradually, you feel better and you start living normally again. But what if, this sadness never goes away? What if, you keep feeling sad, and not knowing what is making you sad makes it worse? If these are some of the things that you feel, or know someone who feels this way, then it might be a sign of depression. Depression can happen to anybody.

HOW CHILDHOOD SCARS AFFECT ADULTHOOD

We all face different types of problems in our life. These can be problems in different areas in our lives. It could be our work, our family, our love life, relationship with our friends, career related or something else. Nobody is totally happy and without problems in life. But we have been bestowed with the ability to face these situations and find a solution for these problems on day to day basis. This is how life works after all. We face a problem, we tackle it and then we move forward to the next one waiting for us. Cycle of life as some people like to call it. But sometimes, due to some reasons, we may not be able to cope up with those problems. Nothing we do seems to work out or seems to ease the situation. This in turn leads to a lot of mental stress for an individual. There are many instances when one might seek help from people close to them. But if even that doesn’t seem to help, then maybe seeing a counselling psychologist might. In today’s world that moves forwar...
