The One Thing I Do When I'm Depressed is...
What is the one thing you do to help yourself feel better when you're experiencing depression? It can be anything at all, even simple things such as a longer warmer shower and listening to music or sounds of nature before bed.
@PosiPotato
I get productive.
When depressed I tend to not do anything because of lack of motivation. Well when motivation doesn't come you do things without it!
Yesterday for example, I was feeling like crap. So I cleaned my entire room and filled two bags with clothes to donate!
Then I was still slightly sad so I went running!
As long as you work on your well being you can kick the ass of depression :)
@Booklover95 YES! I love this. Thank you for sharing! Cleaning has always been one of the ways I help myself feel better. A messy home is an example of a messy mind! :)
@PosiPotato
COuldn't agree more! You almost feel lost and suffocated! Because the environment really has an impact on us.
Good on you :)
@Booklover95 I sometimes do cleaning when I am stress too. It's like giving me more energy to do house chores, especially rubbing on my bathroom. Hahha.
@DayDreamerz
good on you! that's amazing to hear :)
Is hard to be productive but you're doing amazing
@Booklover95
I try to medidate and be by myself for a while until I calm down. Not sure how that helps in a long run.
@KatLis123
It does help you're doing well.
Allows you to really take a deap breath, accepting your feelings and handling them. Is a very healthy option :)
Also if you like meditation have you tried yoga? Is fantastic to fight against depression
@Booklover95
I tried in the past a little bit. Yoga is quite allright. Hmm thanks!
Texting my friends or listening to music typically helps, and if I still feel lousy I just take a nap. It probably isn't the healthiest thing, but I do wake up feeling better.
Listen to music loud enough to block all the voices in my head 💕
Watch funny videos
@uselesscookies buzzfeed is the best for funny videos!
@existentialkat
I haven't seen a BuzzFeed video in a while, maybe I should go back to watching those.
@uselesscookies i recommend watching Buzzfeed - The Try Guys if you haven't already. They have around 9 seasons and they are bound to put a smile on your face!
@existentialkat
My friend really loves the Try Guys and I've seen a couple of their videos.
I like to play the games I downloaded onto my iPad.
@PosiPotato I probably do the worst thing. I either get high. Or cut. It doesnt help and I dont recommend it. If were talking good, I talk to my friends. But usually end up fighting with them.
