Stress creates Depression
Stress creates Depression
Stress creates Depression, so stress is supposed to be a part of everyday life right? I mean…the kids, the job, the mate and that ridiculous commute home on the Dallas freeways! It’s all just a part of life right? These things do “invade” our life, and the results aren’t so good. Stress causes our brain to work “overtime” so-to-speak. Our brain develops “thought patterns” that are not supposed to be there. What these “thought patterns” create is debilitating. We know people that have tried everything but what they try doesn’t seem to work. They keep seeking and seeking but get deeper and deeper into Depression.
Stress creates Depression, The life of the depressed.
Stress leads to depression. Depression is debilitating but do we REALLY know what causes it? Stress creates Depression.
If you suffer from depression then I know that you’ve wondered where it comes from. It’s like a dark fog that rolls into your life when you least expect it. Depression controls your thinking, it controls your mood, it controls your relationships with your mate and children, your co-workers and most importantly…it controls YOU!
Stress causes us to think about things that bring us down, and this causes our brain to work “overtime” creating bad thought patterns. these thought patterns create chemicals in our brain that bring us into s state of depression.
So what can you do? Here are a few points that will get you started.
- Begin to pay attention to what you are thinking about during your day and jot them down. How many of these thoughts are negative? How many are good?
- If you have more negative than good thoughts then you are more than likely stressed. If you keep going, this may lead to depression.
- Seek help from the professionals that can help you map out where these thoughts are coming from.
As a professional, I know that the majority of the stress in one’s life isn’t from the things that I’ve mentioned here. The number one source of stress and depression is not getting one’s “needs” met.
