Depression and anxiety are both related to “loss”

Depression is about losing something in the past, and anxiety is about worrying about losing something in the future.In fact, both want to become betterbut are obsessed with the past and future and unable to focus on the present.

Depression has nothing to do with willpower

Some people may be biased against depression, thinking that it is due to low stress tolerance or weak willpower.But in fact, depression is like a cold in the soul. Anyone who encounters great pressure may become depressed.. You wouldn’t say that a person catches a cold because of weak willpower, right?

admit your limits

People with perfectionism have a higher tendency to be depressed. Because they cannot achieve perfection, they will constantly blame themselves and feel powerless and frustrated.Admitting one’s limits does not mean giving upbut because you accept your current limitations, you can gradually increase your future limits.

Ways to Reduce Anxiety

When anxious, the sympathetic nervous system becomes overactive, causing a rapid heartbeat or difficulty breathing, and a feeling of fear.The way to slow down is through mindfulness and meditation, through breathing and muscle relaxation, to make yourself aware that you are living in the “now”not the future.

Let go of resistance

If you have troublesome thoughts that keep lingering in your mind,Just let this thought run free. It will run away and eventually disappear naturally. Just think about what you’re going to have for dinner later or what happy things happened today.

Just try your best is enough

Many times our troubles are related to interpersonal relationships, but please remember that “just try your best is enough.”We just have to focus on the shots we hit.as for whether the other party wants to pick it up or not, it is not that important. After all, we have already worked hard.
