Spring depression is quite common. A long winter with a lack of sunlight, lack of vitamins and physical activity - all this can provoke the appearance of a bad mood, general lethargy and weakness of the body. There are simple methods that can help ease the manifestations of spring depression.
Instructions
Step 1
Spring blues are afraid of physical activity. Signing up for a gym, jogging, or even simple exercises with music will help you take the first steps in the fight against negative emotions. In the process of active physical activity, our body produces the hormone of joy - endorphin. The main thing is not to shirk from classes, to do them systematically, and depression will begin to recede.
Step 2
Diversify your diet with fresh fruits and juices. Eat foods that help the body produce serotonin, the so-called "happiness hormone." These include chocolate, bananas, honey, nuts, and other carbohydrate-rich foods. Of course, you should not overuse carbohydrate foods, but it is also not worth following a strict diet, excluding them completely from your diet, during the spring depression.
Step 3
Take vitamin complexes with minerals, B vitamins, as well as magnesium and calcium strengthen the nervous system well.
Step 4
Indulge in small pleasures: you can go to a restaurant that you really like, or buy some little thing that you have dreamed of for a long time. The main thing here is to get a charge of positive emotions, to experience a feeling of joy and satisfaction.
Step 5
Spend more time talking to people close to you. You can organize a joint picnic in nature or a house party. More communication with positively minded people pleasant to you - and your blues will pass by itself.
Step 6
You can get carried away with some new business, find a hobby to your liking. It doesn't matter what it will be - collecting elephants or cutting and sewing courses, the main thing is that this activity distracts you from sad thoughts, brings joy and satisfaction.
Step 7
If conditions permit, get pets. It is scientifically proven that pet owners are less likely to get depressed than people who do not have four-legged friends.
