Fighting Depression and Suicidal Thoughts
#28
RE: Fighting Depression and Suicidal Thoughts
Also I'd like to add a tool for those looking to stop the downward spiral into chaos. Our brains are differentiating machines, it is constantly comparing things, visa-vie comparing us to others. Utilize that machine. Remember that with the advent of online global information, we have far more examples of people who are better than us, available to our differentiating engine. If you need/want that serotonin fix, remember that your IRL world is much smaller than the WWW, and work on just comparing yourself to who you were yesterday. Make small improvements and be honest with yourself. If you implement micro routines, day-to-day , you can improve your outlook and put on the brakes of the tyrant inside.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
