Take a deep breath, have a walk, watch a film/episode, knock one out,... these are all techniques that work for me.

This practice is forbidden in the country Im living at moment, penalty is the jail that's an uncomfortable place to living at ♦

P..S Thanks for your general advice, mate

I didnt read the replies but i will take some time to do later

I honestly believe that depression could be won easily if you start doing some sports or gym. You would see a way different mentality

I hope you will win depression

Support from people who love and care about you is an important part of the healing process. Tell people you trust that you're depressed and would appreciate their understanding and sympathy. It is far harder for people to help you if you're secretive and do things that seem inexplicably strange. Knowing will help people to make allowances and support you as best they can.

i dont want to be controversial but some recreational drugs can do wonders for depression. i dont indulge often but i think its good for the soul every once in a while.

of course, the best way to stay happy is to have a wide circle of friends and be financially secure, but thats not always possible.

Hi Dear, as it is in my nature, Im a fighter and even in this case I toke that way and decide to fight the hell back.

First of all, my geographic location (in a village in the middle of no where) has been spot by myself as the main cause of this "illness" and without stay here to list all the motivations that make me say that (for example, I have been stacked some time at home for days due the bad weather and the impossibility to see and do anything due the physical isolation) so, I decide to move home.

In fact, I found a nice new house in town and I will move the last week-end of March (yea, just for Easter ... lol)

Plus, I decide to make myself a bit more busy while I found the right serenity and stability to back in business and because Im a masochist, I find in learning new stuff the right cure.

Im studying the stock market in more details thanks to Tradimo where I meet new excite peoples and matter so, I will have more work to do and keep myself occupied with new stuff seem works fine (at least so far)

I have in the past history of stop and stand-by time (due accidents or unforeseen circumstances) and instead to commiserate myself I learn and toke new challenge (in fact, poker happen after one of that undesired circumstances)

While Im stay out of the game for wht concern poker, I am very absorbed by the new discipline Im learning and Im sure this time isn't wast and it will comeback useful in future.

What else to say, I cannot wait now to become stable in the new home and at same time back to play poker in a more serious way and why not, maybe became good and efficient on the stock market as well.

For now this is the plan but as always we need wait and see what the future will reserve for us.

TY

For what concern badgerer suggestion, yes I agree with you and I don't deny that I have walk long that path in the past but I must say that isn't very good and productive way to occupy your self in life (but that is my personal point of view btw) I prefer to enlarge the horizons of my knowledge if possible for a more productive future.

Some good book and the love for the poker has done the rest, I have learned in the past few months the beauty of the poker as a show on TV that together with the football (my other passion) has kept me safe from insanity

Thanks guys for your solid consideration and concern. It is always nice and good feel with some sort of surround. TYVM all

Hey
Im sorry for what is happening to you, i havent been throu the stuff you are going throu, butt i have read a lot of books about lets say genuine happiness...
First of all i think you are to much occupied with your thoughts, you are spending to much time in your head, am i right?
2.dont read books about positive thinking, they are a good solution for short therm, butt in the end you are just tosing aside the core of your problem, and after a time, your depresion can become worst
same goes with medicine they are only a short term solution
i would adwise to read this book, i think it would bring some light to your problem, and how to face you negative thinking in the core of its problems
http://www.amazon.com/Zen-Art-Happiness-Chris-Prentiss/dp/0943015537

I suggest reading the book "learned optimism".

Hi guys, and thanks first of all for your interest and support!

I though and update is a must here

As I recognize the symptom first and the effective consistence of what I suspect was happening, I decide to pass to attack the hell before the hell was finish me off as unfortunately has happen to many before me (see Matt the American Poker player that take his life just few months ago)

Well, after decide to make a public announcement of what I was going threw on the forum here, I went threw stuff to understand and identify the possible cause of this mental disturb (otherwise I really do not know what else call it)

I though that by involve peoples by tell them what was going on, I was in some way not alone and isolate and in fact, many messages here have helped a lot.

In some condition, I believe that feel peoples around you even just with a word will make a difference, and in fact ...

So, I decide that the house where I was living was part and almost effect of my uncomfortable condition (again I really do not know how else call it)

and as a consequence I decide to move; looked for a better accommodation in the middle of the town this time against the previous one that was in a village in the middle of no where with high depressive mode

For example, by 6pm in the evening there was become an hell of nightmare, isolate, dark and stacked

I was right, today I living in this beautiful house, sunny (when available in England btw ♦ ) and with a lot of peoples walking outside, that's +EV

Starting a professional mental coach and few course on meditation, relaxing and chill and again that has done the job.

At moment Im studying trading on Tradimo with an acceptable results (btw, the guys there are +EV )

and Im looking for a room to start grind again

Obviously, as I have been stopped for so long, I decide to start from ground zero, was good the first time, I hope I can repeat the positive experiences

Finally, so far so good and that's all for now!

Again, thanks guys for your time and support hope to see you all around

GL at the tables (ofc not at mine, lol)

Cya

Forgot to say

@Schnitzelfisch; I have read and watch almost all your material available to me here on the site and I must admit that has helped a lot and for that

a "Thank you very much" is a must
