What do you do if you feel depressed?
The teen years. They can be agony. Everything is changing, your body, the way you think, parents expectation of you, your friends, hormones, levels of responsibility. That is a lot to have happen to you in a short amount of time. I used to joke to my son that he had present traumatic stress syndrome. He didn't think it was funny. If it has been going on for a week, you might try a little exercise to help your body make serotonin and make sure you get a good nights rest, too. Get active, get outside, move around, dance! These are things you can do alone, so you don't have to be with people right away. As you feel better you will want to be with other people. Exercise does a lot of good in many areas. It helps with alleviating PMS, keeps the body healthy, helps fight mood swings, keeps your weight under control, fights heart disease and diabetes. Exercise does a body good! If the depression goes on for too long, you may want to seek out a school counselor, or your parents, your pastor at your church. Just suggestions, hun. Good luck.
I am very depressed. What should I do?
First things first. Dont do anything stupid.Why? Because it wont help you in anyway. The situation you are facing now is what almost every plus 2 student goes through. But they are still going on. Aren't they? As for your 'love' life, its not love! I dont know what that feeling is called but i can assure you that its anything else but love. And i'm saying this out of experience. Even if you do find 'love', then what? You are just going to waste your time chatting or texting him. Of course you are gonna feel good. But thats just temporary. By the time you realise it, your two years up and you will have achieved nothing. And there is high chance that your 'love' life too has run its course. So now, you are not all prepared for your boards and entrance exams. Plus you have a broken heart to tend to. Whats gonna kill you more is that deep down you always knew what you could have done to avoid it but you didnt. Ultimately you ll start having crazy(stupid) ideas. So what must you do? Start DREAMING. Dream about where you want to see yourself 8-10 years from now. Start planning about how you are going to achieve that. Study for your exams. Instead of wasting time on facebook, read articles and blogs as per your interests(not articles about love). If you dont have people to talk to when you are down, go to the most secluded corner of your house and talk to your self. Trust me, it helps. Most importantly , keep your mind busy. I came across the following line when i was down - " you do whats right,let the pieces fall where they fall ". Good luck

What should I do, if I feel demotivated and depressed?
First of all you have to accept the reality that demotivation is quite normal.Since a carnot engine also can't give 100% efficiency, how we can expect that human mind will be positive and motivated all the time.It is okay to feel demotivated and depressed sometimes. Since a straight line on ECG means end of life, similarly the motivation level vs time graph can't be a straight line in practical life. As soon as you accept this fact , demotivation will not be painful.Every person feels demotivated at some point but the people who don't stop by this kind of negative thinking and ultimately becomes successful.Just remember that demotivation and any kind of negative thinking may come to your mind but you have to shoo them off. Remember this line“world ki jitni bhi negative thinking hai unko aane do mein bhi dekhti hu woh mera kya ukhad lenge”. They can’t harm you until and unless you allow them to do this.So what to do when you feel demotivated? well, just do something which can empower your soul ,the extracurricular activities of your interest .Since before going to the war a person need to sharpen his weapon similarly to achieve something great in your life you have to build a powerful mind .Choose the activities which will make your mind a stronger one.when you will feel demotivated then don't stop just work on yourself .
I am feeling very depressed and demotivated. What should I do?
Its just a matter of thoughts, control your thoughts and you are strong.A person feeling depressed shall never seek sympathy, sympathizing will always make things worst; this may sound weird. Practically when you are depressed your subconscious takes into consideration all the past experiences and perceptions. The intensity of depression will always depend upon the intensity of your beliefs. An intense deep emotion will always result in deep feeling of depression.Now, what you can do?As stated above, your perceptions will always influence your feelings and emotions. You need to see what belief is good for you, and what's not. You have all the power to choose what belief you want to keep.
What should I do when I am feeling depressed during my GATE preparation?
Here is the video link: How to overcome exam stress and fear?First of all, I encourage you to watch this video - link is given above ! I pray you get strength.I think I can write an answer to this question. I encourage you to face your fears. You might be depressed because you think,” What if I don’t make it?”, “What if I fail?”, “What if …… and so on?” Isn’t it?I suggest ask yourself this wonderful question that might help you surely, “ What maximum destruction can happen to me if I fail here?”Yes if you fail, you might be upset for few months, your family might be upset for few months too, neighbors will talk for few days then they will talk about something else- that’s what they do! That’s all- you will still be alive and there will be more horizons to conquer- so my dear friend take your action - because right now your action is in your hand nothing but your action!Success and failures are part of our lives- they must be accepted equally! You should focus on just giving your best. GATE is not the end of life- just focus on doing your karma- which is to give your best by believing in yourself and having courage dear friend.Cheers and regards,Rahul KanyalBHEL - 2.5 years experienceIISC, Bangalore- Mechanical Product DesignTata Motors R&D- 2 years experience
I'm so depressed, I want to hurt myself, what should I do?
Friend,I've been there many times and it's of utmost importance that you remind yourself what you are feeling is temporary!!!What I mean is, it always gets better! I know, during those horrible, bleak hours something in our mind turns on us and says, “it's hopeless” , “just quit”, “ everyone would be better off”, “no one would really care”, “I'm not valued” etc. all lies. Yes they come from within but lies nonetheless…When I first began to experience suicidal thoughts I was in college and went to the free student health clinic where they referred me to a local psychiatrist. I walked into his office and told him I was thinking about killing myself. He looked at me and said “"are you”? I said “are you what”? He said “"are you going to kill your self ? At first I didn't quite know what to say then I kinda got pissed and said “NO”!!! He said “good, remember that”. That day of course didn't cure my ills and I've had many dark nights since when I wanted to quit on life but somehow, that resolve lingers…So please don't allow yourself to think in terms of permanent hopelessness. Such as “"things will never get better” , “"I will always feel like this” etc. those are lies. Resolve to keep trying . Tell yourself and mean it “I’M NOT GOING DOWN LIKE THAT!!!If you haven't already, seek professional medical and counseling help. Find an antidepressant that works for you. You may have to work with your doctor and try several different ones to find what works best for you. There's no shame in taking meds. If you were diabetic you wouldn't think twice about taking insulin. Anti depressants are no different.One last thing, don't allow yourself to start planning in your mind how you would harm yourself. Just don't go there. I've found this to be a very dangerous thought habit.You have a purpose in this life even if you haven't discovered it yet. Right now your purpose may be simply to persist and live to see another day…Love, blessings and hope…Scott
