Many people worldwide suffer from depression for various different reasons. It is a hard thing to battle and sometimes the outcome is really tragic. Although you may feel like you are not strong enough, I assure you that the outcome does not have to be fatal. It may take a short amount of time or a very long time but eventually you can overcome depression.
It is important to first identify the things in your life that are causing you to be depressed. It is impossible to solve a problem if the problem is not known. If you are not exactly sure about the particular reason you are depressed, do not give up. Take some time alone and reflect deeply about your life. In no time you will figure out what is causing you to be depressed. Once the problem is identified, it is most certainly easier to try and find a solution.
It is of uttermost importance that you do not give up. Many people have battled depression and have overcome it and you should not be an exception. During this vulnerable time, you are your own worst enemy. It is important that you be careful about what you say to yourself and also be careful about the thoughts that you put in your mind. Stay away from suicidal thoughts. It may not be easy but you can try different methods to try and occupy your mind with other things. For example, every time a suicidal thought comes to your mind, you can sing your favorite song or tell yourself ten reasons why you love yourself.
Do not seclude yourself from your loved ones. Let them be there for you and let them help you as much as they can. Try to communicate with them and express to them how you are feeling rather than leaving them in the dark. Try and live your life the way you used to when you are happy. Do the same things you used to do on Sunday mornings or the things you loved to do on Friday evenings. Surround yourself with positive people and not negative people, eventually, their aura will rub off on you.
You should not spend the rest of your life unhappy or depressed. No matter what you go through in life, you always have to concentrate on the positive aspects of your life, rather than the negative things. It may seem impossible, but you can conquer depression.
