INTERVIEW
How did you make it out of depression ? Well , one doesn ’ t just levitate out of the dirty swamp on his / her own , one certainly needs a great deal of help and efforts . Generally only three categories of people can help you pull yourself out of this muckfirstly Family and friends , secondly a doctor and the last category doesn ’ t have much population because it consists of only you . To forget the pain and fear the depression arose from , one can take help of family , get indulged with them , they dilute the pain by sharing , empathising and with a tool named as humour . If you want to technically solve it by regulating your hormone levels with medicines , you have a doctor . But if you ’ re brave enough to look the demon through the eyes , not to avoid it but to know the truth , to delve into in and pluck out its core , if you plan to help yourself you ’ re my kind of person . I started educating myself about this condition and one of the best books I can recommend to you is “ Emotional Intelligence ” by Daniel Goleman . I tried to retrospect and introspect , made notes , made inferences and connections , in short I tried to understand myself and my mechanisms . I was interested in how “ I ” work first of all postponing looking at how the world does to later on . And only after I knew my sweet spots and the things I was already good at and strengthening other things making myself less insecure , I understood that negativity breeds negativity but also similarly confidence breeds confidence . The fact of you now taking charge of yourself is half way done . Although there was a lot of effort that needed to be put in to gain this invaluable freedom , one can always internalise something spectacular
