My depression will disappear for a week and then come back with a vengeance. I have major family problems but I can usually push it aside and focus on college. But when this gloom occurs, it is relentless!! I cant think, I have brain fog, and I just lay in bed, I also don't eat and become incredibly thin. I have assignments due and I try to get them done but it feels like I am lifting a boulder.
I really cant see a doctor because my health insurance has not been paid...its complicated. Any natural remedies or personal therapy that could help? |

I've read that going outside I the sun for at least a few minutes or so can help improve your mood. Some days I can't get myself to do anything but the days I can I try to at least do one productive thing no matter how small, sometimes that's enough for me. Sometimes I'll take my dog for a walk because I know she loves it and forcing myself to do that for her helps for a little while

What I do is mainly to help with relaxation and sleep, but it does help with my mood sometimes as well. I listen to guided meditation/relaxation on YouTube. There is a user called TheHonestGuys and they have some good videos; theirs are the ones I usually use to fall asleep. Mindfulness is supposed to help with mood and I have trouble "keeping in the moment" as it is, let alone when I am depressed.

I try to do things I enjoy, like reading. I also have been forcing myself to take a walk everyday for both the mental and the physical health benefits, even though it's hard and I have to push myself I generally feel better and more accomplished afterwards

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
