DEPRESSION:

THE VICISSITUDES OF INSIGHTS AND INTEL REGARD DEPRESSION

Depression is one of the most common feelings and emotions of a disturbed downcast of emotional ailments. It is a situation I have encountered numerous times on the path of the journey in my personal, professional, and military sojourn, particularly during and after my tenure, as a Vietnam Veteran serving on the frontline in the Blue Coastal Waters in the Vietnam War Zone.

A key approach for me was to grasp some type of Hope and to begin the search for ways to Cope. The resulting outcome was  Seeking Inner Peace, which led to the connectivity of ‘meditation’. In the throes of the meditative process such discovery as noted below was quite helpful and very effective:

• Taking quality time for reflection

• To find and follow the purpose of life panoplied with faith

• To focus on a Divine Belief and Faith in the Goodness from the Power of Higher Authority

The above-mentioned mindful thoughts of consciousness served for both balancing and centering, as they took the mind off the present situation and ushered in the state of mind of Belief, Faith, Hope of Divine intervention, and desired improvement.

 Such activities of thought process brought forth the divine ability to help a great deal, rather than to lean toward my understanding. Thus

As a person of Faith, I have learned that it is wise and prudent to seek the divine power and source of a higher authority.
