| Description |
| Depression is one of
the most common emotional disorders. It
may be manifested in varying degrees: from
feelings of slight sadness to utter misery
and dejection. Depression is a very unpleasant
malady and is far more difficult to cope
with than a physical ailment. The growing
complexities of modem life and its resultant
crises, as well as the mental stress and
strain of day-to-day life, usually leads
to this disorder. |
| Root Causes |
| Prolonged
periods of anxiety and tension can cause
mental depression. The excessive and indiscriminate
use of drugs also leads to faulty assimilation
of vitamins and minerals by the body and
ultimately causes depression. |

activities.
- Significant weight loss or weight
gain.
- Inability to sleep or excessive sleeping.

| Precautions |
- Become more active, diverting
attention into other things:
A person suffering from depression can
overcome it by being more active, turning
away from himself, and diverting his
attention towards other people and things.
The pleasure of achieving something
overcomes distress or misery.
- Exercise: Exercise
also plays an important role in the
treatment of depression. It not only
keeps the body physically and mentally
fit, but also provides recreation and
mental relaxation. It is nature's best
tranquillizer. Exercise also tones up
the body, provides a feeling of accomplishment,
and reduces the sense of helplessness.
- Relaxation and Meditation:
The patient must also learn the art
of relaxation and meditation which will
go a long way in curing depression.
He must gain control over his nervous
system and channelise his mental and
emotional energies into restful activities.
This can be achieved by ensuring sufficient
rest and sleep under quiet conditions.
Meditation will help create a balance
in the nervous system. This will enable
the hormonal glands to return to a correct
state of hormonal balance and thereby
overcome the feeling of depression.
