- Never dwell upon your doctor’s point-of-view. Because if you dwell on it. You are telling your subconscious mind you are this way. Don’t do it.
- Do not dwell on the past mistakes that may of occurred because you have been diagnosed with a mental health
- If you have trouble with what is another voice talking to you. Argue it away. What I mean is talk back to this voice as it truly belongs to a living being be it one made up by your subconscious mind. Therefore tear its comments apart using pure logic. Being thoughts generated by your conscious reasoning mind. This should help change the status quo in your favor and give you your mind back alone as it should be.
- Do everything you can to mitigate meaning to make little of your illness with the modicum of humor you can inject into the situation. Example given. If so called high or so called manic. Laugh at your misfortune and the subconscious mind will lessen the symptoms because you have used the emotion of laughter which is a combination of joy and enthusiasm. Thinking about these two emotions alone will help to erase and ease your flights of imagination.
- If you are not manic but depressed I suggest reading the Bible’s Ecclesiastes. However also read often and ponder the wonderful words of Psalm 91.
- For any moments of the black dog of depression affecting you. Stand with your hands on your hips like Superman or Wonder woman and force a smile for the longest time you can. Then if able do some push-ups.
- If you truly think and believe you have a mental health mental issue. Do not treat this idea, this notion in an obvious ocean full of ideas you can have in the realm of human thoughts that a human being can have. Look to number 8:
- Choose wisely and take your time and take a clean sheet of paper and write down 10 goals you’d like to achieve in 12 months. Choose the one that if it could magically become real in 24 hours you would jump at the opportunity. Write this one chosen goal on a new sheet of paper. Then take some Post-It Notes and write this one goal on it and stick them everywhere you go. To keep your mind ever focused on this gola. And use all your willpower to exclude all other intruding thoughts out of your mind’s free space for thinking only about your goal even at work and at the supermarket. This maybe simple but it can be hard in today’s world of social media and Youtube news stories.
- And whenever you can try listening to Christian music by musicians such as Hillsong.
