How To Help Someone With Depression? by baress(m): 10:02pm On Jul 10, 2016
It hurts to know that our near and dear ones are sad and depressed. No matter where they are, we would want to help. We feel helpless and handicapped as we don’t know what to do. But, there are two things with which we have complete freedom. How we think about depression and what do we do about it. Let’s try and make this world a better place by having the right perspective.

Sometimes life events – some close and some very far away – could have us really feeling helpless and worried. “Helpless” and “worried” don’t play nice together and could lead to overwhelm.

Being Depressed is as a result of repressed thoughts and anxiety and obsession sometimes.

It's Mind over Matter problem and its reoccurence is known as what we call Dejavu.

How can you help some one with depression?

When you brain fires neuron to make connection, it's what we call you conceiving a thought and the more neurons are getting fired up, the more thoughts would be travelling in your mind.

That's why weed and alcohol speed up the rate at which your neuron connects and makes you start thinking abstractly and do things haphazardly.

But

When you depressed, Neuron fires and connects so the mind wander away but into thoughts of fear of the unknown or lingering problem(s) at hand. Which could be overwhelming.

The only way out is none but getting your mind engaged in random activities or go catch fun just to distract the mind from wandering into your repressed thoughts.
