What to do if you have a depressed personality?

Strong personality, competitiveness, sensitivity and delicateness, caring about other people's opinions, mental obsessiveness, perfectionism... If these traits are concentrated in one person, the probability of him suffering from depression will be very high.

This type of person may seem cheerful, informal, helpful, and easy-going... But in fact, if there is a severe conflict between the external environment and his inner world, and he judges that he is unable to change often triggers an episode of depression.

How to solve your own depression?

1. Exercise.

Choose an exercise that suits you, such as jogging, yoga, aerobics, dancing, etc., and stick to it regularly, two or three times a week. If your physical condition is acceptable, we recommend spinning and Zumba. These two sports cause a lot of sweating. The music is cheerful and enthusiastic, and the rhythm is strong. They can vent negative energy well and improve physical vitality and self-confidence.

2. Make friends.

You must have your own circle, whether it is studying or traveling, communicating more with friends who have the same interests and hobbies will help improve your self-recognition. If you are lucky enough to meet friends who can truly understand and appreciate you, you must cherish them. They are the most precious medicine in life.

3. Live with a plan.

Keep yourself busy and don’t do nothing. Arrange your life in a planned way, set short, medium and long-term goals, pay attention to the goals to be realistic and not too high, and reward yourself appropriately for each goal achieved.

4. Improve mobility.

Just do whatever comes to mind and don’t think too much. It takes a certain amount of time to develop habits, and you have to be tolerant of yourself.

5. Lower your expectations.

When doing anything, you must anticipate the worst outcome, lower your expectations, use this mentality to do your best in the process, and accept the outcome calmly no matter what happens.

6. Be true to yourself.

Eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are tired, laugh when you are happy, and cry when you are sad. Stay true to who you are and love yourself as much as possible.
