This is a very informative article. Thanks for these helpful tips. I always suffer from social anxiety, especially when in front of a crowd or during job interviews. I always have a hard time expressing my thoughts in words and in turn, I stutter and make unnecessary contact to the ceiling or wall.

What a great article and so true. I have found that happiness in life boils down to a couple of things. Giving love unconditionally, being kind, having a plan for life to keep your mind occupied with lovely thoughts. Give hugs, lots of kissing, love your partner like their your best and only friend. Just smile and help others. Have a great day and I look forward to your next stop awesome job

Comment on The Four Reasons Why Overthinking and Depression Are on the Rise by Makooks

Okay. Just because the odds of one REALISTIC scenario you thought up in your head manifesting into real life don’t seem significant, remember that it is still a possibility no matter how extreme or exaggerated. I give emphasis to HOW REALISTIC a situation is because that is how you rule it improbable, or Not Likely At All to happen, and CAN disregard & ignore. The heaviest overthinking keeps the MOST REALISTIC event in mind, and usually it is also a WORST CASE scenario. Because logical fails to get rid of them, it needs a different approach. Instead, physical action that in its essence intends to prevent that reality must be enacted to really lessen the truth in that troubling circumstance that you cant stop feeding attention to. Because you work a solution that literally takes away the worry, youcan move on. Know for Sure, instead of Knowing Maybe. Clear your doubts; Address your Issues; and rest assured youre not procrastinating when you attempt your best solution. Now we tell ourselves we doing everything IN OUR POWER to guarantee a desirable outcome but KNOW we CAN’T CONTROL EVERYTHING.

I wonder if those people who experienced a significantly larger degree of gratitude had any really extreme things happen to them… that made them reconsider how good it was to be alive. Like a near death experience or something similar. When I speak to people or read about people who have nearly died – they seem to be the most grateful people I’ve met/learnt about.

In reply to Chris Banducci.

Hi Chris.

“Are you saying that just generating the feelings of gratitude are enough?” I do think that expressing those feelings is important.

When I’m grateful to lady luck, that tends to translate into my being kinder to the rest of the world. I’m grateful that I had the good fortune that others did not, and as a result I want to give them something. So it can be directed to someone.

Why not God? Because I’m agnostic.

I think that it’s interesting that “those moments when I feel intense gratitude make me want to believe in a benevolent God” Perhaps there is a benevolent God that’s reaching out to you. Why is it that you would deny that, and embrace “lady luck”? Lady Luck, it seems to me, is capricious at best. In doing that, even though you mention increased spirituality as a benefit to life, you’re denying that benefit in your own life, unless you consider “Lady Luck” to be a spirit. Expressing gratitude to “Lady Luck” that has neither personality or concern for you, which are attributes of a “benevolent” God, seems like being grateful just for gratitude’s sake. Are you saying that just generating the feelings of gratitude are enough? Is it really gratitude if it’s not directed at someone to whom gratitude can be given? I’m really curious as to your line of thought here.

Comment on Is Depression Really on The Rise? by Sandra Mullen

I can’t believe that in 1938 people did not have more depression than in 2017. They were in the middle of a war. I think we need to stop thinking of 2 weeks when we were 16 and feeling sad is abnormal. I think people are no longer growing up having to deal with difficulties and hardships, so they don’t know how to deal with emotions that go up and down. Sadness is a part of life.
