All About Depression And Intuitive Counselling

 

The hustle and bustle of modern-day living is causing too much stress for many people. Along with factors related to work and relationships, stress can lead to a major depressive disorder. While it is normal for a person to feel down every now and then, it will be a different story when it gets worse and you suffer from it in long episodes.
All about Depression
Depression is a common disorder characterized by sudden mood swings. It comes with the feeling of being sad, worried, and helpless. Depressed people suffer from an endless cycle of bad moods. In many cases, these things lead to self-destructive behaviors.
Depressive disorders manifest in three different types of illness. These illnesses are similar in a way that they affect the sufferers' emotions, attitude, and overall productivity. They, however, have their own distinctions.
Major depression is one of the most common. Its symptoms often influence a person's daily life, primarily their studying, sleeping, eating, and working habits. There are episodes where a person goes through severe depression. When it becomes chronic, the person must seek assistance and undergo treatment.
Dysthymic disorder is another kind of depressive disorder. The symptoms are usually longer and more severe. People with dysthymia usually suffer from significant changes in their productivity. They are also prone to major episodes.
Bipolar disorder is an illness where the person suffers from drastic mood changes. It is also called manic-depressive illness. The sufferer's mood cycle has very low points called depression, and high points called mania. In some instances, the mood changes gradually while it switches abruptly for the most part.
Steps to Take
You should take the necessary steps if you start experiencing depressive symptoms. One way to do this is to seek intuitive counseling. Contrary to how people see them, an intuitive counsellor works not to predict the future. The function of this type of counseling is to help depressed people create their future by looking at the past and present thoughts and belief.
A counsellor's help determine things that the person is hesitant to act upon. An example is letting go of an unrewarding career or perhaps a long unhealthy relationship. A professional intuitive counsellor can help the person see the necessary actions to take. They know how to translate the challenges the person is going through to opportunities to grow and be more mature. This way, the person will realize how to deal with the challenges and stop the depression.
With the help of an intuitive counselor, you can have a clear idea of what's bothering you. In many instances, you know the root cause of your depression but you find it hard to admit and accept. The counseling service will help you. More importantly, it should guide you in coming up with solutions. The healing process might take a while, but what's important is you get through your depression in the end.

Uncovering Root Causes Of Anxiety

So many people with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, etc. just "learn to live with it". I have been there personally and didn't like the options that were given to me by the doctors. Most doctors are doing the best job they can and there is a time and a place for medication. But personally, I feel very strongly that it is a tool to use until the ROOT CAUSE is revealed. Most health professionals never dig deep to find the root causes.
Does your scientific mind ever kick in and ask "why" something happens? Anxiety and other associated experiences are not the cause. Anxiety is a result. You don't "have" anxiety, you experience it. It also doesn't happen over night. Yes - anxious feelings can start over night. However, the groundwork that lead us to that point took months, if not years, or even decades!
Unless we have a physical deformity that caused malfunction in the body, the cause of anxiety boils down to stress of the mind, body, and/or spirit. Stress doesn't necessarily mean overworked and underpaid. It can mean running, running, running without relaxation for years. Decades of blood sugar swings from improper eating and malnourishment. Maybe it's emotional turmoil of dealing with a loved one who has a made poor lifestyle choices. All these things accumulate and eventually our body burns out.
Our bodies are physically affected by these stressors. A massive cascade of chemicals are released when we feel any sort of stress. During this time our bodies consume enormous amounts of resources to cope. Resources like amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. As we live under chronic stress, those resources get depleted and we physically can't cope - hence ANXIETY or even panic attacks set in. When we start putting the raw material resources back in - the anxiety starts to subside. Then permanent lifestyle changes can be made that contributed to the problem such as over working, over committing, and worrying about everything. This is when recovery without relapse is achieved.
We as humans are not meant to burn the candle at both ends for years at a time without rest and play. Think of a pet and how they live. Let's use a cat for example. Maybe he wants to go outside hunting and do his cat thing. Then he wants come home and sleep. Then back to hunting and playing activities, then sleeping. To have the life of a cat! The point is, observe any animal on this planet. They all have times of intense activity, then great rest. We wonder why so many of us feel like we are going to crack at any moment, we are rest deficient!
Unfortunately learning how to overcome anxiety permanently requires a bit of study. More so, recovery and rebuilding yourself won't happen in a day. Maybe not even a month! Getting rid of anxious feelings can absolutely happen extremely quickly. Rebuilding your body so the anxiety roots are gone forever take time. Start by making simple changes to diet, adding in personal time, and enjoying relaxation time is a great start.
