Where has the happiness gone?
Question:
Answers:
Precious, happiness has not eluded you; you have lost it! Now look for it in the very place you lost it. When we look for something, we look back not forwad.
When was the last time you were happy and what caused it? Who made you happy or what made you happy? How long did it take you to get happy and how long did the happiness last?
Okay, if you can really and truly answer these questions, you have found your happiness. When something is gone, it is missing or lost. That means you set out to look for it. You do not do anything new but check in familiar or old places.
It's the same way when we become depressed; we have to draw from what we use to do to make us happy.
Well, if you were indeed depressed you would have a difficult time concentrating and could probably not read for any great length of time.
Check your calendar to see if you are PMS'ing. During blue times, a quick peek at the calendar is all you need to know that it will soon be passing. See a doctor if that's not it and if it persists. Depression is nothing to play with; it only gets worse.
Good luck

Go see your Doctor & tell them how u feel maybe you have depression caught early should help stop it developing & their are good treatments like anti depressants or seeing a counsellor to discuss your probs.

Find a good psychiatrist and seeing him/her. The first thing that you need to do is get a determination of whether you are suffering from clinical depression or you are just temporarily depressed because of some difficult problems that you are going through. A psychiatrist can easily do that and if you are clinically depressed (meaning you have an imbalance in brain chemistry) he/she can prescribe medication as well as other things.
The hardest part is finding the psychiatrist. You need to find someone whom you respect and trust. You might ask your medical doctor for a referral if you really respect your doctor's opinion. You might just look through the telephone directory or through internet information. You might ask a friend or friends.

Change your thinking, and expand your horizons. Get out there and participate in fun activities. Do things you enjoy. Read positive books that include creativity. Get involved in physical fitness, even if its just going for walks. Challenge yourself to new beginnings with trying new things, classes, kickboxing, dance, whatever...just believe in yourself, and you can turn your world around. Don't sit there and let depression control you...you control it! Well what are you waiting for, happiness is waiting to happen, open the door and walk through it! You can do it! Smile and the world smiles with you! Have a great day!
first off... what's to be so sad about?? trust me, i don't mean to demean... we all get sad... but put it in perspective... is it really worth all the tears? (it often isn't for me!)
i can only speak from experience... but reading for me only put me deeper into my own little world, and took me further away from reality taht we have to come back and face sometime... so it's easier to just face it. if you really like to read... try throwing in a postive thinking book. norman vincent peal's books have helped me out of a few slumps.
most important, get a hobby. you need something that you like to focus on. art, sports... something that you can slap a big goal on and work towards it. seeing yourself accomplishing things and getting closer to your goals will DEFINATELY give you a boost.
i really wish the best for you sweetie.. i have this great method i use in my life: fake it till you make it! try just pretending to be happy... i'm not saying be fake... but you can DECIDE to be happy. it's really not easy at first, i know... but it does get easier.
Is there a valid reason to feel this way? Medications are a last resort.
If you feel bad totally, for at least 30 seconds at a time. then this may pass.
