In the life of any person there are periods of sadness, some kind of loss of strength. Well, if there is some logical reason, in this case, sadness does not raise bewildering questions and does not scare. But if there is no significant reason, then this minor mood is alarming, provokes an attack of self-digging, and a person with his own strength and absolutely free of charge can cause himself serious problems. What is happening and how to decipher this incomprehensible state? Is depression sneaking up?
This is normal!
A minor mood in itself is not a sentence. The expression is based on a musical definition denoting a melody with sad emotional overtones. Why should you consider this condition the norm?
First of all, you need to critically look at the peculiar marketing that surrounds the concept of joy and happiness. The information field is literally riddled with an aggressive demand for positive emotions at maximum intensity. Suddenly it turns out that everyone is obliged to radiate smiles, to be constantly in a state of not just a psychic recovery, but literally in a manic phase.
Happiness is like a drug
When something good happens, dreams come true, significant results are achieved, endorphins and dopamines splash into the blood. The feeling of happiness really brings pleasure, this is a real feeling in which a person feels amazingly harmonious. I want to repeat this, and the pursuit of an additional dose of dopamine makes a person feverishly extort more and more positive maximum from the surrounding reality.
The truth is that no system is able to operate at the limit. The human psyche needs a harmonious alternation of peace and peaks. It comes to the point of absurdity - falling out of the manic phase even to the level of the norm is perceived as negative. Minor mood - what is the state? First of all, this is the lack of dopamine, possibly with a slight minus.
Depression is a disease, a serious clinical condition that is treated with appropriate drugs. Light healing sadness should be perceived as a natural state before the next peak of joy and treat it with understanding and calm.
