Anxiety Depression
From a religious stand-point, Jesus once asked
his 12 disciples: “Which of you by worrying can add a single strand of hair
to your head?” Now, you may be of a religious background or maybe not,
but, think about that statement and you’d see why worrying, a main symptom of
anxiety depression is quite unnecessary.
Reduced to its simplest form, what is worry? It
is simply an unhealthy and destructive mental habit that- believe it or not
folks-you were not born with but simply acquired out of practice. The good news
is, with aggressive actions, as with any habit and acquired attitude; we can be
worry free and eliminate it from our lives successfully.
In the words of Dr. Smiley Blanton, a noted
Psychiatrist: “Anxiety depression is the great modern plague.” Other
psychologists go on to say ‘worry’ a noted symptom of any form of
depression, is the most subtle and destructive of all human diseases. When we
worry excessively, we disintegrate our inner workings as humans and really put a
lot of things out of order. Needless to say avoiding worry as a step of treating
depression and anxiety will be the first step for our own benefit.
Anxiety Depression: Steps to take to be
Worry Free:
The following steps should be used to deal with
anxiety depression and its main symptom, worry. When used wisely and
effectively, you will inevitably be successful at these natural depression help
techniques.
- Practice Mind-drainage: Empty your mind of
pessimistic and negative thoughts, especially before going to and after
waking up from sleep. This involves some degree of imagination friends. (the
same imagination-mind you-that you are actually using to aggravate your
present situations…didn’t realize that eh?). This mind-draining strategy
cannot be overemphasized as I will let you know, if you fear something for a
long period of time, it may actually come to pass. “For the thing which I
feared has come upon me…” (Job 3:25)
- Fill up the mind with powerful thoughts of
faith and success to fill up the vacuum now left in the mind. You become a
worrier by practicing it, you can be worry-free by practicing the opposite.
- Say positive things about those things you
previously spoke negatively of.
- Never participate in a worry conversation.
Induce your conversation with faith and worry-free statements.
- Make friends with optimistic people,
practice prayer and meditation.
- Exercise and eat right. You’ll be making
yourself look and feel better and consequently stronger through the process
for overcoming depression, anxiety and becoming worry free.
No one is saying things will be automatically
changed overnight.
No, it takes work. However with direct and
equally aggressive actions as the destructive worry habits one may be indulging
in, anxiety depression can be overcome and you too can be worry free if you
believe in your mind you can.
