Sadness, bad mood, loss of strength - all this testifies to the onset of the autumn depression. There are many reasons for its occurrence. Scientists argue that this is a natural phenomenon, because in autumn the body suffers from a lack of solar energy and heat. With the onset of a "dull time", the body is rebuilt, it is not easy for it. And the thought that the summer is behind and is still so far away from the next vacation, evoke despondency and sadness.
In September, a person is still cheerful and cheerful, because a recent vacation has given many unforgettable and vivid impressions. In October, the days become noticeably shorter, it rains outside the window, and the soul becomes heavy. After all, there are cold and long months ahead. A gloomy picture, just not so bad. First, you need to understand that summer is over, but life goes on. One season from year to year replaces another, there is nothing to worry about.
There are seven main ways to combat depression.
1. Pay attention to your daily food intake. Must be present in your diet vegetables and fruits, dairy products, lean meat. These foods are sources of micronutrients and vitamins that are required to fight your depression.
2. Go in for sports, go to the pool, sign up for fitness, aerobics, or yoga classes. Dancing is a great stress reliever. Any physical activity promotes the production of "pleasure hormones" in the blood.
3. Take an evening walk every day for 20-30 minutes. Go outside at lunchtime and walk to the nearest café. This helps to distract yourself and start working with renewed vigor.
4. Go out of town on weekends, bringing warm clothes and an umbrella. The beauty of autumn nature and fresh air will give you a boost of vivacity for the whole week.
5. Strengthen the immune system, take vitamins, since autumn is the time for the beginning of the development of flu and colds. Move more and avoid hypothermia.
6. Adequate sleep is a guarantee of excellent health. Sleep daily for 7-8 hours, observe your routine.
7. Change something in your life. Sometimes it is enough to make a new haircut or buy a new thing, and life will sparkle with bright new colors.
A cup of hot tea or coffee, a pet running at your feet, an old film that is familiar from childhood and, of course, a loved one nearby will also help to cope with the autumn blues.
