"Depression Awareness"
It seems these “blue moods” are recurring more and more frequently, so you’re concerned there might be a problem. If you’re like I was you might be a bit too prideful or you don’t want to (or can’t afford to) visit your doctor over a little problem of feeling sad about things. Still you need to check things out.
Fortunately there is a simple test that you can take to get an idea if you might be experiencing symptoms of actual depression.
Most of us would do whatever we could to stop someone from attempting suicide if we only knew they were about to try.
Still if someone we know is contemplating suicide is keeping their thoughts hidden how are we to know so that we can do something? There’s not a simple solution to that problem; however if we know what to look for we can might be able to recognize a “tip” if presented.
When faced with a problem a lot of us typically latch on to the negative issues because, quite naturally, that stuff hurts. The first thing we end up doing is focusing on the bad (but we don’t have to stay on it) instead of the solution. The key here is we don’t have to stay focused on those negatives.
Moods can be affected by hormones. Hormones are something that we cannot control. Moods are also affected by a lack of sleep as well as other factors. Tired people may have trouble managing their moods. It is important to recognize this.
