Hi there!
Winter
has zoomed into sunny Qld which causes me to want to curl up in bed with
a good book, a cup of hot chocolate, and my sweetie pie! Life is
about making choices and decisions, and I am thoroughly enjoying time
taken for me. It's guilt-free and delicious. Menopause the Musical
is soon to close, and if you haven't seen it yet, it's absolutely
hilarious. You can take a man to it, because as Dennis will tell
you, he loved it! Enjoy love and life, and love yourself
first.
Warm
regards Narelle
About
DEPRESSION
Depression is a
whole basket of symptoms, some that seem unrelated, and I think of it
like different coloured balls that together form a picture of
depression. The following symptoms must be read in conjunction
with other symptoms and are not stand alone factors. For a
depressive disorder, there is usually a combination of symptoms and
other factors will include the severity of the symptoms and the period
of time in which you have experienced the symptoms.
Depression symptoms may include:
Feeling sad
Crying episodes or inability to cry even though
you want to
Feelings of hopelessness or helplessness
Difficulty concentrating
Difficulty making decisions
Loss of pleasure or interest where it was formerly
experienced
Weight loss
Loss of appetite
Weight gain
Frustrated easily
Loss of sex drive
Increased anger
Irritability
Sleep problems
Memory problems
Thoughts of suicide
Withdrawal from others
Work difficulties
Social difficulties
Low energy / fatigue
Feeling guilty
Feeling worthless
Cannot see a future for yourself
Depression
in the workplace
Depression affects many
people in the workforce and may impact on performance in the workplace,
if you are depressed.
Depression
may be situational. That is to say that a situation may be causing
depression, and that when you remove yourself from the situation, the
depression will naturally ease and you will feel happy and healthy
again.
However,
if the situation does not change, or you do not learn how to cope with
the situation and you cannot remove yourself from it, then you run the
risk of clinical depression.
2.
Eat properly - 5 small meals a day containing high protein foods
3.
Laugh often and in big doses - watch some funny movies
4.
Tell yourself you love yourself and you love being you!
5.
Make an appointment! Research shows that people actually improve
in the time between making an appointment and attending their first
appointment. (It's called 'making a decision'.)
6. It is absolutely
essential to be properly assessed, so that treatment can begin as soon
as possible.
Call now, for any problems associated
with depression.
