Listen Daily To Begin Changing Your Thought Patterns.Description: Having ‘clinical’ depression can affect all aspects of a persons life, strangely enough during my days of dealing with depression waking up in the morning in itself was tiring, even after a good nights sleep. Our self esteem and self confidence takes a beating and that dark gloomy cloud that hangs over the heads of people that are going through depression, unfortunately can not be wished away or just float out of their lives somehow.First let’s look at some reasons why people get themselves into a ‘clinically’ depressed state, and then look at what has worked for myself and others I work with to get back to feeling abundant again.Reasons People Become Depressed:Becoming Isolated – It’s just natural for human beings to want to be around other people. If the option of meeting that significant other and starting a family is there we feel fulfilled, but if it’s not an option, we at least want to feel the closeness that friends, co workers or certain social groups give us. The feeling of being isolated appears when we feel that we just don’t belong, and this is a major reason people become depressed.Medications – Let’s remember that antidepressant medication and clinical depression in general is still very poorly understood. But if you are on some kind of antidepressant consider yourself one of the lucky ones if you don’t experience side effects such as the one written on the back of my old prescription: “Fluoxetine may cause some people to be agitated, irritable or display other abnormal behaviors. It may also cause some people to have suicidal thoughts and tendencies or to become more depressed.”Chronic Stress – If you are dealing with chronic stress and anxiety it may be contributing to disrupting normal patterns of behavior, which can then lead you down the road of depression.Candida Overgrowth – Toxins that become released into the bloodstream due to the Candida fungus in the human body can cause a multitude of symptoms, this can then lead to health anxiety and depression. As i’ve experienced in my own struggles in the past as well as seeing what has worked for others, curing your intestinal Candida can also cure your depression.Childhood Abuse Or Hurt – A child who has been surrounded by abuse is much more likely to experience clinical depression at a later age then one who has not. In fact, the numbers show that 59% of physically abused children will become depressed later on in life. PTSD, learning difficulties and generalized anxiety are also part of the assortment of mental difficulties someone could experience later on in their lives.Substance Abuse – It’s estimated that 80% of people who have a chemical dependency or a certain addiction, also experience a co-occurring mental health problem such as generalized anxiety disorder or depression. Making the most of this one life that you are given, and firstly admitting that you need help is the first step to success, no one can truly create lasting change but yourself.Loss of a Loved One – Grief is a normal emotion to the news of losing a loved one that commonly leads to major depressive disorder. Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness are all part of the grieving process.Change – Sometimes when we lose that familiar feeling in our lives and get hit with a new job, a new marriage, a divorce, moving somewhere new, retirement etc, life can quickly become dissatisfying or dull. A seemingly positive change that has been planned for some time can bring unexpected changes that can bring about depressive episodes.Visit http://anxietyexit.com to subscribe to The Anxiety Guy Podcast, the number 1 health podcast on iTunes for anxiety sufferers.Important Community Links:Join Us On Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/theanxietyguyThe Anxiety Guy On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dennisanxie…The Anxiety Guy on Twitter: https://twitter.com/The_Anxiety_Guy
