Preventing Depression

Preventing Depression

Some people are more inclined to become depressed than others and therefore we need to find out for certain what chemical changes occur when someone becomes depressed as well as what triggers them. Before this is achieved we will not even begin to be able to discover whether one can prevent depression.

We cannot say, however, that anyone has actually prevented depression until we are able to expose people to its causes and observe their minds and bodies resisting it as a result of some kind of preventive action. Nevertheless, if we consider what depressed people regard as the causes of their illness, it may offer some guidance as to possible preventative measures.

Preventing depression the following ways:

Through thinking:

We already know that two people can experience identical events and yet one may become depressed as a result whereas the other does not.

State dependant theory:

It has been found that we remember incidents according to the way we felt at the time. This is called state dependent memory, and it means we do not remember the past in neutral terms, seeing both sides of any situation. The rule is therefore to try and allow yourself to see something positive in everything. If you find something positive in even the worst that befalls you, then you have cracked it!

Q. I participated in two clinical trials of ketamine for depression. The infusion was not pleasant, but a few hours later, my depression was mysteriously lifted.

We only have the power to control our own thoughts and actions. No matter how much we try and control others, we cannot. We must accept other people are just the way they are; it is up to them to change themselves if they want to.

Nobody has the right to control another. The only possible exception to this is a parent's right to hold control of a child in trust until that child is old enough to be responsible for their actions and thoughts!
