When we are attacked by a feeling of hopelessness and longing, it is not so easy to deal with it. It is good if you know the cause of this condition, in this case it is clear what problem to work on. But it also happens that melancholy rolls over as if for no reason, due to a general weakening of the body, a painful condition, a breakdown. How do you deal with melancholy in this case?
Instructions
Step 1
First you need to establish your regime in order to lead a more or less correct lifestyle. To keep the body in good shape, you need to go in for sports, go to the pool, visit the sauna. You need to go to bed on time, and take at least 7 hours to sleep, since constant lack of sleep not only weakens the body's immune defenses, but also contributes to the appearance of a depressive state.
Step 2
Eat right. The constant feeling of heaviness from unhealthy diet does not contribute to vigor and good mood, while healthy food tones up the body. In the autumn-winter period, drink vitamins to get rid of chronic fatigue syndrome and depression.
Step 3
Now let's turn to the psychological reasons. Most often, melancholy rolls over those people who live in the past. It doesn't matter what kind of memories keep you in the past - those that gnaw and torment, or those that return you to the past happy times. The melancholy in the second case will be no less than in the first, because the thought that the past happiness has passed does not in any way contribute to an increase in mood. Therefore, to get rid of melancholy, you need to get rid of the habit of looking into the past and start living in the present.
Step 4
A melancholy mood is also greatly facilitated by the habit of noticing only the bad around. Meanwhile, it has long been known that life will show you those sides to which you are most inclined to pay attention. And if, remembering the past day, you fixate on how you were scolded in transport, and not on the smile of a handsome stranger, you urgently need to change the way of thinking. In order to do this, no effort is needed, only perseverance is needed. Get in the habit of noticing something pleasant around you, and you yourself will be surprised at how quickly the melancholy left you.
