Antidepressive tips (5 photos)

In spring, everything that sat silently in us during the long winter often intensifies. Such seasonal disorders can and should be combated. We'll tell you how.





Antidepressants

One of the most popular methods. The only thing is that there are a large number of such drugs, and they do not help everyone. Sometimes patients are forced to try 2-3 options to find the one that suits them specifically. At the same time, no one is immune from side effects.

But there is good news here too. Scientists have proposed a revolutionary approach to treating depression. Conventional antidepressants work with individual neurotransmitters, scientists decided to take a different route and act not on individual neurotransmitters, but on their “base,” a kind of control center where they are all born. We are talking about a universal antidepressant, a natural substance - vindeburanol. The drug has already been successfully tested on mice, it turned out to be much more effective than anything existing today, it doesn’t have as many side effects and it suits all “patients.”



Psychotherapist

It is this specialist who prescribes specific treatment and prescribes the necessary medications. There is no need to be afraid of him, he does not treat “crazy people”, but completely normal people who are temporarily faced with certain life difficulties.





Physical activity

Sport is everything to us. Moreover, sports in any form. You don't have to kill yourself in the gym. An hour's walk is enough. You can also do swimming, yoga, tennis or badminton. All these activities contribute to the production of serotonin - the hormone of joy, which affects sleep, mood, and regulates the intensity of anxiety.

Sleep and rest mode

Most of our problems and disorders arise from a banal lack of sleep and days off. First we work ourselves into a semi-fainting state, and then we complain about being in a bad mood. You need to sleep at least 7-8 hours a day, the strongest and most useful phase of sleep is from 10 pm to 2 am. But you need to rest at least 2 times a week. Relax fully, and not take on household responsibilities.



Breathing and meditation

They are the ones who bring you back to earth, disciplining your brain, preventing your thoughts from wandering into the past or running into the future. Inhalation activates the sympathetic nervous system, exhalation activates the parasympathetic. Take breaks throughout the day, allowing yourself at least 5-10 minutes to be alone with yourself, without worrying or thinking about anything.
