I Battle Depression

The darkness in my brain is not something an ordinary person could handle. I barley manage every time, but here I am. Somehow.

I’m not depressed right now, but I feel like I’m looking at the darkness through a fence. It’s lurking in reach, but is waiting for the right moment.

In a way, it’s sexy flirting with the darkness like that. It’s a toxic relationship really. Who knew I’d be my own worst enemy?

Don’t tell me I can control it, that I need to exercise to get rid of it, that I’m over exaggerating. You have no idea unless you’ve experienced bipolar depression. It’s not something I can just change. It’s not a mindset. It’s a disease of the mind. One I wouldn’t wish on anybody...

Great! you are coping up with it. It means you are a fighter!

My advice.
Just Breathe! Yes, breathe for next 3 months and see your depression goes away , and don't take pills in between.

Breathe? yes, you never know how powerful inhaling and exhaling is, Breathe deep into your lungs and abdomen not like up to the throat. It isn't something that you should do all the day, 1 hour a day. Breathing exercises (called Pranayama and kaapali bathi) can bring tremendous changes in ones mind and body repairing each and every cell of the body. Yes body is made up of cells, cells need oxygen, the more you give them the more energized and function they are. What you exhale is toxic, co2. The more you inhale deep, you pour in more oxygen to the system, the more you exhale the more you remove toxic waste from system, it gets perfectly cleansed in mind and body , so that you will be a perfect human doing your life much positively.

Or just run for 1hour, inhaling exhaling deep down, see the results. Breathing repairs, Breathing heals.
Happy Healing.
