When you feel depressed

If it were me, I would do zazen meditation.
I'm not really depressed, but when I'm frustrated or anxious, I meditate.
It's nice to sit quietly to reaffirm yourself, which we tend to lose sight of in our exciting lives.

Of course, there's no point in just sitting around without knowing how to feel at that time, but it's a story I've learned a lot about that ^_^

I definitely recommend it.

There are times when I get depressed too.
There are times when I feel bad and my feelings are heightened.
It's human, isn't it ^^

But I control my mind so that that state doesn't last long.
As you may know, there is a saying “color is the sky.”
If you are obsessed with having, it exists.
But if you throw away your obsession with not having one, then there's no such thing.

We can look at things in many ways.
I don't know what caused Natsumi's depression, but please try changing your point of view in various ways without getting bogged down by biased views.
In this way, moving away from obsessions will ease your mind.

Hello. My name is Kameyama Junshi.
In my case, first of all, I get really depressed. (lol)
The degree of depression is proportional to the gap between your “ideal self” and your “real self.”
The difference between the ideal of “I should be like this” and my actual self creates depression.
Therefore, I think it is important to “not have excessively high ideals” for the “ideal self.”
“Not having excessively high ideals” does not mean living passively. For example, “I want to compete in the Olympics in the future.” How many people around you have this ideal? At least, no one around me has such ideals. However, when it comes to whether everyone lives a passive lifestyle, that's not the case.
“Not having excessively high ideals” means “setting ideals on top of self-analysis.” That's it. In other words, when it comes to having ideals, it is important to “acknowledge your current situation.” If you only make mistakes at work, “I'm a person who often makes mistakes at work.” It's about being able to properly acknowledge my current situation. On top of that, he said, “I don't want to make mistakes.” I will set this ideal. If you can properly acknowledge your situation, “don't make mistakes.” Results that are different from that ideal occur, and even if I'm depressed, on the other hand, “I can't help but make mistakes like this.” That way of looking at it will come into being. If you do that, making a mistake is not a good thing, but I think you will be able to think about things positively and with ambition. (This is not a reopening. (There's probably no ambition when it comes to opening up again.)
That's all, I'm living my life while looking at things like this.
Finally, “I'm like this, so I can't help but make mistakes.” This thought has been heard by the Buddha through Nembutsu.

There are various causes of depression, but...
There are as many as you want.

It's about how to revive, but in my case...

1. Write it down in a notebook.
I will write my current feelings as they are, and if I had a little more time to spare, I will also analyze and write the causes that led to depression.

2. Put stress on the ocean.
I used it as a reference to what Ishihara Yoshizumi was doing, and I use a scoop to dig up sand on the beach and throw it at the edge of the waves.

3. I'll forgive myself for that.
Akan, who created her depression, accepts herself.

4. Sutras
While reading sutras in the main hall, I think of painful events that I can't do.
Then, the speech became stronger, and the rhythm of the wooden fish became disturbed...
Expose your emotional self before the Buddha.
It makes me feel like I'm wrapped in a Buddha, and it makes my heart feel lighter.
