Today's article is specially given to the mother of a fan L.
This is the thing. L left me a message after seeing my experience of overcoming depression, saying that his mother suffered from moderate depression. Last year, she saw a doctor and gradually got better with the help of her whole family, but now it is serious because of work.
L tried many methods, and her mother also wanted to get out of it, but she just couldn't get over that hurdle. L doesn't know how to help her mother, and asked me what to do? I gave some advice, and finally L made a request and hoped that I would write a passage to her mother to encourage her to face it optimistically.
A month later she told me that her mother had improved a lot. So I decided to publish this article, hoping to help more people, and I hope that if you see this article, you like and forward it so that more people can see it.
Below is what I gave to her mother:
Hello sister! I am Xiajiujiu, your daughter’s friend, and a former severe depression patient. I am now an entrepreneur and a mother of two children.
I deeply feel the same way when I know your situation. I used to suffer from depression because of work and resigned and went home after being persuaded by my family. After a while, I felt even more like a useless person and had no sense of value. I always feel that my illness will be cured if I have a job, so I went to look for a job despite my condition. As a result, after joining the job, my condition became worse, and it went from mild to severe.
Depression is no different from other diseases. It requires treatment and can be cured. When the body is well, we have many opportunities to work.
There are many aspects in our life, and work is just one side. You have a daughter and husband who loves you, friends and relatives, and past life experiences, all of which are wealth.
When I was diagnosed with depression at the age of 24, I felt that my bright future and future collapsed, my life was completely over, my boyfriend would leave me, friends and colleagues would look at me differently, and I would become a drag on my family... I would always unconsciously exaggerate the consequences to infinite.
But you have to know that your current feelings and thoughts are not real in your heart, because depression will make us think so, don’t take it seriously. The fact is that my boyfriend did not leave me, and the family did not despise me. They all tried to help me together. We should not feel guilty towards our family or regret for the past. These will not help but aggravate the condition. As long as we work hard to cooperate with the treatment and make ourselves well, it is the most correct thing.
I completely got out of depression and had a new understanding of life. Later, I got married and had children, and I still worked hard for my work. Later, I successfully started a business and lived the life I wanted.
Depression broke the previous me and rebuilt it and evolved into another version of myself. I never want to have a second depression, but I am also grateful for this experience, which has completely changed many negative thinking and immature minds I had before I got sick.
says these are hope that you can feel better. One in every 14 people in China is depressed, which is no big deal. With my experience of successfully getting out of depression, I strongly recommend that you exercise more. Running is a very good anti-depressive exercise, and it can also strengthen your body and make people more and more active.
What changed me the most was running. Many celebrities and entrepreneurs got depressed by running, such as Sammi Cheng, Mao Daqing, Xu Wei, etc. Exercise changes the brain, and persisting in any form of exercise can make us feel happy.
Also, you must find something for yourself, it is best to do something that can be done by hand or brain. You may not be interested at the beginning, and it is difficult and painful. But if you stick to it for a while, your feelings will get better and better, such as doing handicrafts, making food, learning flower arrangements, reading books, doing anything you can do, setting a small goal for yourself, and ticking it in your heart when you complete it, don’t put any pressure on yourself.
This is how I accumulate energy from the bottom little by little and finally break through depression.Because I found a way to control myself - running and studying, I recovered about half a year ago, switched to sports events, and later resigned from his job and started his own business as a self-media. 7 years have passed and never relapsed. It is also important to be aware of your own state at all times and maintain psychological construction and exercise.
So my sister must believe in myself, I can, and you can do it too.
I read a lot of articles on how to overcome depression back then, and saw a patient with depression for ten years finally recovering and living a free life that I envy. Although I didn't believe that I could get better at that time, I had an immortal desire to survive. Now that I wrote this article, it may be a kind of inheritance, and I hope you can choose to believe it unconditionally.
What cannot kill us will eventually make us strong. Being able to live a happy and healthy life is more important than anything else. Work is just a small part of life.
I wish you a speedy recovery and a better life. Let’s work together!
