Echa R.’s Reviews > Loving the Wounded Soul: Alasan dan Tujuan Depresi Hadir di Hidup Manusia > Status Update

Proper higher meanings—believe, spirituality, and self-love—help us heal from or/and prevent depression. ♡

External factors :

1. Relationship — Everyone has their own struggles. Sometimes, it can hurt others. Don’t let ourself be the victim, forgive & move on.

2. Lifestyle — More expectation, more stress. Do meditation to exercise mindfulness.

3. Culture — People have their own way to express their sadness based on where they live.

4. Nature

5. Epigenetic — We carry gens, but we can change its expression!

Biology factors—genetics, neurotransmitters, brain structures, gut microbes—considered as the reasons behind depression. Yet, it's a complex disorders. Discarding one factor isn't enough to get away from depression.

We better mantain as many healthy lifestyle as we could; such as eat healthy foods, work out regularly, and have enough sleep.

Things i learned :

Everyone can be depressed.
But, there are some people who are tend to have it:
- Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)
- High achiever
- Intelligent buddy

We have to understand that not every HSP is an introvert. Extroverts can be part of HSP, too.

Do you know that our body can give us ’signals’?

It could be clinical pain,
but if the physical pain(s) can barely get cured, with no medical diagnosis,

maybe it’s our mental that need to be healed.
