Do’s and Don’ts When Depressed

Do’s and Don’ts When Depressed 

 Do

1. Sleep: A nice nap can restart your mind, your day even. A little nap can take that pain away. I honestly do this when I’m in this zone.
2. Listen to your favorite songs: Sometimes hearing your favorite artist sing or rap can make you tune out and just get lost in their creations.
3. Play Games: Play games or whatever your hobby is to get your mind off things.  
4. Chat: If you have a friend or someone close you have a chat with them. The conversation doesn’t have to be about your situation just get your mind off things. Who knows they may be going through something too and just need a talk too.
5. Cry: Just let it out. No one’s watching. Just let it flow. Get it out of your system.
6. This may be the least popular but a big one for me is working out. I like to do part of number 2 and listen to music and just zone out in the gym until I feel better. Take a shower afterward and nap. So its a mixture of all of them.
7. Another one is to get HELP! Sometimes it’s hard to handle and you may need to call a suicide prevention line. It’s nothing wrong with seeking help when you are feeling depressed. I have been delivered a great guide to Help anyone of you or someone you know who is dealing with depression in these links https://www.columbusrecoverycenter.com/depression-resource-guide/  & https://www.drugrehab.com/co-occurring-disorder/depression/

Don’ts 

1. Don’t eat. Don’t let that become the reason you gain a massive amount of weight and struggle to get it off later. That doesn’t help you it makes your problems larger. 
2. Play with or be around weapons. If I can prevent one thing that would be suicide. Being near weapons and feeling down could only lead to1 or 2 things. Killing yourself or someone else and No one wants that. 
3. Don’t Drink or Do Drugs. Becoming an addict is not something that will help. It’s a brief high that will not last long and once you start it’s even harder to quit. It’s a trap.
