I am facing depression from last one year failure of life feelings compel me to finish myself. I am confused what to do.

Question

Hello, I would suggest you to seek help from a professional as you are suffering for a year now.
Depression is a state where there is a chemical imbalance in your body, it is a physiological condition and not purely psychological.
Depression if treated earlier have a good prognosis.
Please see someone and if need be you could start medication.
Once you are on medication and you are feeling positive changes then you also incorporate following suggestions to help build resilience, which will help you manage your stress in a better way and you would be able to lead and happy and fulfilling life ahead.
To begin with doing guided progressive muscular relaxation before sleeping will help you relax. You could download an audio file. I would also suggest you to take a multiple small break to take 3 nice and deep breath while keeping your eyes closed.
You could do this while sitting or standing or while even walking or climbing stairs (keep your eyes open in that case).
When you take a nice and deep break there is actual physiological change in your body. Thus will help you to activate parasympathetic nervous system which promotes relaxation and helps you calm down and think more clearly. This will also actually improve your performance in your work.
Along with this exercise is one of the best way to relive stress and stay fit.
Engage in any kind of physical activity at least 4 times a week.
This also helps in stress reduction.
Along with this some relaxation exercises as well as engaging in joyful activities such as music, singing, dancing, reading, being in nature, gardening, talking with friends or anything which you enjoy will help reducing stress and rejuvenation of your mind and body.
Have good routine for sleep and eating.
Lot of research has now proven that sugar is very harmful for our health. Reduce sugar and refined white floor in your diet as much as you could. Along with this also increase consumption of raw vegetables in the form of salad in both the meals of your day.
If you need help in exploring what works best for you and make this into your life style do let me know. As a trained wellness coach I could help you tailored your own holistic wellness program. Hope this helps
wishing you very best.
