Recognizing the signs of Depression

Recognizing the signs of slipping into depression is the key for regaining your control. Notice these things:
You feel over whelmed
You feel like you have no control over what is happening.
A darkness is surrounding you
You wander around aimlessly, you have no focus.
There is an empty feeling in you.
You lack purpose in life.
These are just some of the feelings you may be feeling or have felt. Once you recognize that you are feeling this way, you can take steps to remedy the situation.
1. Begin by setting yourself a few tasks to do each day. This gives you a focus and a sense of accomplishment.
2. Make time to go for a walk, your perceptions change when you excercise.
3. Plan your week. Set out a few things to achieve each day. This will assist you in your sense of purpose.

                        I hope this helps you this week.
