RE: Living Life Moment By Moment
Routine is a great way to overcome depressive cycles. If you have a routine that you force yourself to stick to, such as taking your dog out for a walk, and watering flowers, then you may end up breaking the depression with these activities.
Having close family and friends that you stay in touch with is very important!
Try to recognize depression when it starts and start reaching out to family and being proactive before it gets severe!
And if you know that suicide is a thought that is in your mind frequently, please seek professional help and never ignore it! There are free suicide hotlines that you can call 24/7 and sometimes talking to another human being might be all that you need to snap out of a fugue!
Great post @socent!
These are all really great tips and should be read by everyone. I am so grateful that you have taken the time to share them here. You are such a kind and giving soul. I really liked your post on depression recently and could relate to so many points that you shared. Maybe you and @nathankaye could collab on something because you fellas may find a lot of common ground in mental health challenges and how to help others. Just a thought.
