Inside The Dark World Of Depression By Praveen Pal

Inside The Dark World  Of Depression

   By Praveen Pal

In a dark cold room with dim flickering light, a young man was sitting at the edge of a posh polished bench. Holding a glass of whiskey, supporting his head at the edge of old dusty table laying in front of him he was on the verge of blacking out. Wearing a loose tattered shirt, his tie was hanging from his neck just like his dubious future. Darkness in his mind was consuming him. Lines on his forehead was so prominent as if these were telling about his ultimate despair.

" I have lost all my hopes, aspirations, zeal and success that I have achieved in my life. Now, all I am left with is a vacant shell without any desire. I've lost all reasons to live in this dark void world", he thought.

Hello World!! I am Praveen Pal. A fellow contributor of Crimson Creed and a UI/UX designer.
You might be wondering what I've said in those last few lines. So, please allow me to explain my thoughts to you.

In some point of life, we all might be facing these problems like this fictitious young man or maybe not. But this is a topic we all avoid discussing.
Have we ever wondered, why we to face these kinds of situations and what exactly drive us to follow these dark paths of self-destruction?

To get more insights about these particular scenario lets to dive deep into this young man's dark horizons of the mind. That man could be any one of us. Certain situations and their outcomes drive us to travel through these dark paths, it twists our minds in ways that we never thought could happen. And if we can't shape theses situation according to our will, then we tend to shape ourselves according to these ordeals to survive.
In those situations, we generally feel helpless and directionless as if we are stuck in confinement where no one can hear us even if we scream at the top of our lungs. Well! Sorry for my exaggeration, but this is what DEPRESSION actually feels like. And unfortunately, only those will understand this problem who had been through all these torments.

DEPRESSION is a very serious issue, neglecting it would be a totally ridiculous act. My friends, we are not alone. Approximately one in every five people are suffering from this problem.
And the best way to tackle this is to ask for help. Share your thoughts and problems with anyone who you can trust. If the problem is getting out of reach then it would be very wise to seek any professional help.

This problem becomes quite less challenging if we get a fresh perspective of thoughts from anyone. My personal advice would be keeping a journal so that we can keep track of our thoughts and mental health. Well! My friends, that was my blog about something I was keeping inside for a quite while and it is definitely very liberating to share these with all of you.

Now it's time for me to sign out from CRIMSON CREED, hope you liked it.
Till then take care of each other & have a nice day ahead.
