I wouldnt say there is an easy way to get rid of depression, but there are ways which can help it. Cognitive therapies are quite useful in overcoming depression and there are some cognitive techniques that people can use to self help themselves: Pleasant activity planning - make a list of all the days in the week and schedule something you enjoy for each day of the week e.g. watching your favourite film on Monday or reading your favourite book on Tuesday. Another cognitive therapy technique is: Thought diary - whenever you feel sad (or happy) write it down when and why.
This can help you to see if your depression is worse at a certain time of day or what the reasons for your sadness are. It can also help you to see what makes you happy. And is a good way to express your emotions.
Meditation can also help, but it takes a little time to make a difference in anxiety or depression because first you need to learn how to do it effectively. There are plenty of YouTube tutorials though. Many people find that having a hobby is good for depression because when youre busy doing something you enjoy, you don't have time to think about sadness.
It is like a distraction from sadness. Think about what do you like or are interested in. Art?
Cooking? Reading? Writing?
Gardening? Maybe you should visit your doctor if you feel nothing is improving. They can give you medication or arrange alternative therapy for you such as counselling.
Good luck!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
