“Christmas and Depression”
Every second on this earth, someone is going into a depression. There are many reasons why this happens, and unless you’ve been depressed you will only have a chance to know about this through reading articles such as this one.
Only Professionals can explain what happens to the human mind that triggers a depression. However, if one were to think of some reasons, they would be as follows. A loved one is killed in a road accident, and those left behind could take this death so seriously that it could cause a depression that they may never come out of. Someone is stabbed in a fight, or shot accidentally, a plane crash kills many, and a good friend or relative dies, and that person’s death causes many years of deep depression. Christmas comes and goes, and to you it’s just another day because your life is empty, no one to even share a meal with.
There is a very fine line between sanity and insanity, and those who don’t know about this line should stand up and take notice, as it doesn’t take long for a person who is slightly down, to escalate to an out of control depression. Even worse, if a person gets depressed, and doesn’t see it, or out of fear fails to recognize the fact that their world is now upside down, they could kill themselves, or kill others in their lives. A depressed person could affect even a stranger, if that depression is deep enough to make that person want to kill themselves. If that person jumped off a building to certain death, they aren’t worried about who’s below, and who they could fall on.
Christmas is the worst time of the year for people to become depressed. For the many who will spend their Christmas living on the streets of our world, they could become seriously depressed. Think of it for a moment. No place to live, no place to get a decent meal. No one in their lives who cares. Not even a place for a hot bath. What a terrible way to live, and yet society walks on by, not caring about these people, and so some of them might think if society doesn’t care why should they care? Worse yet, someone you know is feeling down, and or depressed, and they do seek medical attention, but the medications that are available today won’t work with that person’s body. The human body though complex does sometimes reject anti-depressants, and then the person who is depressed is left to come out of their depression on their own. They can do it, but it takes a lot of hard work, and a constant stream of people in their lives that care enough to help them. If they don’t have these re-sources they will almost certainly take their own life, or the life of another.
