Surprising because people treat this financial turmoil in very different ways. They feel depressed because of huge financial loses and use these pills to feel better.

Can these pills really make you feel better? I really don’t know, but the fact is that you don’t need pills to feel better. As a matter of fact you really don’t need reason to feel better. This moment right now can you feel better?

I always say to people during my training program is this

“The only reason why you must feel happy is that you are able to read this or hear something happening and feel in a certain way”. You are so gifted to have what you have and that’s a good enough reason to feel happy.

But people say, “Praveen I have lost money, and how do expect me to now feel depressed?”. Absolutely right! You must feel depressed but my question is that will taking pills be the solution. The result of eating anti-depressants or even smoking or drinking is “More depressed”. You will feel down, sad and depressed and because of that eat pills and then feel more bad because you are eating pills for not getting depressed which means that you are fighting depression.

Depression is just a State of Mind and you can control it. I know you will feel bad about the events of your loss. But it cannot be avoided. Respond in a useful way so that your life will be in better control of yourself. Instead of focusing on how life will be because of your loss, start focusing on how you want life to be. That will make you come out of depression will motivate you and make you perform better.

Please do not pop pills because they have other effects in your brain.
