The planet has about 8 billion people living on it.
All are of different ages, different ethnicities, different thoughts and religions, and we all still have one thing in common. We all have feelings. Just like all other living-breathing species. There are obviously good days and bad days, but then, on some days, we tend to simply ignore the bad ones and move on. And what happens when we are having a good day, maybe even a great day, and then we see someone who is having a bad day? Usually, we feel bad, briefly, and then move on with our regular lives. Sometimes we may try to console them and sometimes we just pretend we don't see it. After all of this, what happens when we see a normal smiling face on a good day? We smile back, right? But how do we know that whether everything is really okay? Because that is what depression is all about. Everything is okay on the surface, but the person is slowly dying from within.
Google defines Depression as a medical condition with the symptoms of persistent sadness. So the greatest question is: where does the persistent feeling of sadness takeover? Something, somewhere, demotivates the person from smiling, laughing, doing something fun, so much so that even making eye contact with someone becomes a difficult task. We have some great expectations and hopes for our lives and then there is this weight on our shoulders that overpowers us.
We all look for motivation, excitement and adventure from life, and everyone deserves to find it. Everyone needs to feel needed and important and to love and be in love. And then depression makes it all the more difficult to even love oneself. And if my word is to be taken, one thing I have learnt in life this far, is that not loving yourself is the worst thing that anyone can deal with. How do you expect someone else to love you when you can't love yourself? NOT HAPPENING.
So what you must do from this point on to cure and even avoid this form of death is to smile, make others smile, and love yourself and everyone you can. Lets be honest, it is as simple as that. Believe it or not, this cure has no pills involved. So why not give it a try?
