A smart phone and a Bluetooth speaker
Introduction
Technology has done many good things in the system, we can't over emphasize the goodness of technology, it gets to the least matters that we can occasionally imagine.
We can be thinking "what's the connection between depression and technology" but I found out the connection today when I was depressed, let's talk about it.
What is depression
A depressed face
Depression is all about mood disorder that leads to sadness and pain in the heart, sometimes a depressed soul can even shade 😭 tears.
This condition disorganize's the system and affects everything we do, even the way we think and talk, it causes so many physical problems that can even make one consider commiting suscide.
Causes of depression
Briefly stated depression comes in when life problem seems overwhelming and looks like there is no solution to the problem.
Sometimes it can be as a result of of when someone is been diagnosed of an illness that seems to have no solution.
Sometimes it might be as a result of dead of a loved one.
Sometimes the collapse of business can lead to depression and so many other reasons.
For example the first time I was diagnosed of endometriosis, honestly I got depressed because I thought about so many problems I already have like my sick brother, my sick father and so many other problems, I felt like "God why me" but I am a better and happy person now tho still living with those problems.
Now the question is what's the connection between technology and depression?
The effect of technology as regards depression
One of basic thing that helps a depressed soul is music, music improves mood and makes the soul happy.
Technology has made it easy today, you don't need to have electricity before you listen to good music, once you have a phone that contains what is called "memory card" you can enjoy music at your comfort.
The wonders of technology comes when you think about how you get to listen to music with a music box through a setting called "Bluetooth"
How does it work
- Put your speaker on
- Go to the connections of your phone and click on the Bluetooth icon, immediately it will connect and you will enjoy your music.
Honestly through this method technology has been able to save millions of depressed soul, and am a living witness of that.
More to that because of advance in technology, making of music is now much easier than ever before, producers can produce music right in their respective homes without going to a studio.
Conclusion
I came up with this thought I just penned down today when I was depressed to the point of not going to work, I quickly turned on my music box and went to the boom player of my phone and started playing music.
So I now remember years ago when we had radio that works with just electricity (NEPA) and where there is no electricity you can't enjoy music, I now came to realize the goodness of technology as regards music.
Thank you all for reading
Impressive post. I wanted to laugh when I saw the example of a depressed face, but finally, I smiled.
From my own point of view, we cannot fake a depressed face. It's too intensive and natural. It's a very terrible feeling to the extent that we don't even know how it erodes us.
Moreover, your presentation is good.
Thanks for the information.
We can't fake a depressed face, have you ever been depressed? You will do all you can to uplift your spirit but it might be difficult sometimes.
On my own way, I take more pictures those moments and even it will be obvious even in my look, I keep those pictures for better days.
I'm beginning to think about it though. Trying to agree with you. I am also trying to see the practicality of being able to take pictures when I'm really really depressed.
All the same, depression has different stages sha, that's the main fact. So maybe we are saying the same thing.
Thank you for replying.
Technology like any other invention has its own good and bad it's up to us to make very good use of the good side for the betterment of our mental health.
You have analyzed it well. Just like it was with me yesterday morning. I on my music and my speaker...see me dancing while cooking that my children were just looking and laughing. Didn't know why I was behaving the way I was.... problems came stirring at my face and I decided to shot it down through my dancing to sweet melodious songs in my phone and speaker. I can't die quick because of wahala...😘
I love the word "shot it down" that's the ot way to continue living
Yeah, that's it!
What you said is true @beautybb, sometimes I imagine how they do it and why ordinary bitten gives us joy.
This is absolutely true. I can testify to it. Am a lover of music and whenever am depressed, music and one other thing solves the issue. @beautybb thanks
