Overcoming Fatigue and Depression
The temptation to take it easy costs moments in life.
I underwent weeks of recurring fatigue combined with depression. I realized this was because I was unsatisfied, my health was declining because of excessive anxiety, and my productivity was greatly reduced. I couldn’t focus, and I couldn’t complete everything I wanted to do.
When we are unsatisfied or unhappy with how we are living, it’s easy for our bodies to shut down and become depressed. I took several steps to reduce my discomfort and improve my situation. I understood why the things that were upsetting me were happening if it had anything to do with who I am or what I am doing, and if I could do anything to make the effects easier on me.
Sometimes the events in our lives that recur are not under our control. We have the option of distancing ourselves from the situation or changing our attitude towards it and reducing our anxiety. Much of this work requires cognitive effort and intellectual reorganization of thoughts. It takes time, effort, insight, and intuition. Dreams do help if we actively engage with them and remember the lessons they offer us.
Fatigue can be both a mental problem or a physical problem of habit. Perhaps our body is used to resting for an amount of time. We can counter this by doing short bursts…
