How To Use Depression Poetry

 

depression poetry

Depression poetry, or simply dysphraxia, is the term used to refer to the co-existence of two mutually contradictory moods or feelings. This condition can be caused by a diagnosis of another condition like bipolar-disorder, major depression, post traumatic stress disorder, seasonal affective disorder or eating disorder. In a sense, the term "dysphraxia" describes both the condition and the feelings that go along with it. Dyspraxia is a technical term that is used to describe all of the disorders and diseases that fall under the major category of "psychiatry".

For years it was thought that humor was a positive influence in the recovery from any type of mental illness. The concept that depression poetry can be an effective means to help treat the illness dates back to the writings of Sigmund Freud. His theories on abnormal psychology promoted the theory that there are two kinds of human behavior. The first category is the idiopathic, or abnormal behavior, and the second is the psychogenic, or therapeutic behavior. It was believed by Freud that we have two "voices", or ways we can express our thoughts. By working with our "voices" we can work out our difficulties and find a way of living and dealing with our illness.

By examining the concept of depression poetry, we can see how this relationship between poetry and mental illness came about. When a person, or sometimes a group of people, feel depressed, they usually turn to poetry. Poetry seems to be a safe avenue to release feelings of sadness and grief. In addition to releasing these emotions through poetry, some people turn to poetry as a way to cope with their illness.

There are many types of poetry that deal with depression. Some of these poems deal with themes of depression, while others deal with things which cause the depression. Poetry can be effective at helping the patient overcome their depression by re-creating scenes and by painting beautiful images in their mind. These images can be very strong and can have deep meaning to the patients. In fact, some of the most powerful poems written about depression deal with death and loss.

When choosing depression poems, you will want to choose poems which are appropriate for your particular condition. If you are in a group that is dealing with depression poetry, then you may want to look for poems that are similar to poems that are read during a period of depression. You want to have a poem which is uplifting and comforting, as well as meaningful. For instance, if you are having trouble being alone, you might choose one of the many 'depression poems' which have been created for those who have difficulty being alone.

Sometimes mood symptoms are so severe that the patient may feel like they cannot be alone. This is especially true if the patient is suffering from bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder is another medical condition which can cause extreme, mood swings. The mood swings associated with bipolar disorder often lead to depression and despair. Therefore, when a patient is dealing with depression, they need to have a poem which can be uplifting and comforting in order to overcome the despair that often accompanies this condition.

Many of the depression books which have been created are written in free verse. This is because many people who suffer from depression do not like the formal style of poetry that is written in the poetic form. For instance, it takes much longer to read a long poem than it does to read a short poem. It is much easier to understand the meaning of a poem when you read it in its proper form.

This article explores the use of depression poetry. It is important to know that each person who deals with depression will draw from a different variety of poetry. However, you can use several different types of poems to help you overcome your depression. This article explores this possibility and gives you an idea of how to use depression poetry to battle your mental health issue. If you are suffering from depression, then you certainly need to explore this avenue, which will give you hope.

Testing for Depression

  As a child of the eighties, I remember my parents' excitement over the idea of testing for depression in adults. The thought of taking a pill every day to "make me feel good," was a far more attractive option than the prescription drugs my parents were taking. I grew up with parents who could never imagine themselves as adults. In my mind, their adult emotions had to be somehow "determined" by some mental process that could never be completely understood by the average person. So they put aside their qualms about the use of psychiatric medications, and enjoyed the benefits of their choice. Today, I am an adult who have had "the experience" of having "depressed feelings," but not necessarily experienced the debilitating episodes of depression that my parents' generation did. Today, I have learned how to "cope." Through a course of prescribed medication and therapy, I have discovered how to treat depression, and I no longer take...
