Overthinking.

Not many people really know the feeling of actually feeling something on an inner level. I don’t mean feeling happiness or sadness, and I don’t mean feeling something physically… I mean, feeling as in a universal, intuitive, indescribable feeling of something purely right inside and out, manifesting all around. I think that’s because people are so conditioned to worry all the time due to how we were raised in this society… you know, worrying about being late or about what this person thinks about us or about how to act in front of certain people so they will like us… just worrying about anything, even things that aren’t even in existence like a scenario we play in our minds of a situation that isn’t even happening in the Now. We have been taught to put all of our energies into materialistic, superficial things that a lot of people have kind of lost touch with our natural intuition.
I feel that depression shouldn’t be something that you take a pill for. I don’t get the whole ‘take drugs to release serotonin in your brain’ thing because that’s basically exactly like taking ecstasy or drinking (etc.) to temporarily take the depression away. They both have the same outcomes which are dependency over the drug and increased depression if you don’t continue taking the drug. All of which leaving no room for personal experience to independently grow and actually become cured. There are so many natural, drug-free things people can do to cure their depression. Studies have shown that being in nature on a day to day basis decreases depression and can actually cure it as well. Studies have also shown that gardening, creativity (drawing, painting, writing, etc.), exercise and eating organic whole foods decreases and can even cure depression as well.
