young parents are always happy. so babies, according to ads, at least. but anyone who has had a child has seen plenty of other moments. it's a similar story with people on vacation. everyone's beams and there's holidays, snapshots, bus, even minus speed bumps like getting lost on the way to the hotel. tim coast. i'm new to to social media. stalls always seem to be in especially good spirits. incidence as well. grumpy don't have a lot of success, but is that a good say? should life be full of only good vibes? even in the midst of break ups crises or personal tragedy? communities on instagram, tick, tock and other social media insist on cheerfulness and positivity for why just

money to actually share only the best parts. so everyone thinks i'm she has such a good life. she's never said to send me tell us and vision as you kind of don't want to look at the posts about negative stuff on the site examples all that you just wanna always see how the implement sir is hanging out on the beach loving cocktails and living the best life and it is that good for us psychotherapist to be like i'm hoff says it can be dangerous. social media marketing for social media sets, an example always higher, foster more beautiful better. that means there's a certain pressure. i'm only allowed to show my most positive side and then this dazzling world. anything negative is no longer allowed. and that in turn needs to isolate sion at some point or believing. i'm somehow alone with my negative feelings because everyone else is always in such a great mood. and that's the humble thing in the long run. because i then question myself and think i'm different than everyone else. i know i'm not. there's no question that people who can maintain an optimistic attitude are generally better

off, but that becomes toxic when any negative feelings are instantly given short shrift . experts then speak of toxic and positivity, which is that to them so much the toxic sentences, for example, pull yourself together. it's not so bad, it'll be ok. i've gone through this before. in other words, sentences that don't take the other person seriously and that's suffering. and just leave them alone with instead of having even negative feelings, make sense because they indicate that something is wrong and that we should take a look in the long run. repressing and blocking out negative feelings can lead to depression. germany's 1st and only happy ologist, the public of income is looked intensively at the topic of happiness and being happy. he also warns against trying to keep negative emotions at arms length, the social media association, and social media, and the things that presented extremely positively and with lots of filters. we've

done. everything on these platforms is always going great. everything is really nice, but it's mostly for the sake of, of mice. this is jeff. hey, i believe that kind of natural, this is precisely what makes things like people just make out of us. and when someone says this actually happened, often in the and then face we all and most from what goes wrong. and i think social media expense, so we well advised to also post the mistakes. sometimes of these, a few know most of posts, but, but toxic positivity on social media just doesn't allow for that. so many refuse to accept the good vibes trend at face value, inductive liquidity, cod loose sites of reality. even if you're optimistic about everything at the end of the day, you have to cope with some stuff and then it doesn't matter whether you'd, you'd everything positively. the truth catches up the realities and catches up and ready to go for that reason, i think a healthy mix of both ways is important because off, much make you have to have a bad stuff sometimes because only then can you really look forward to something good and then man, if you move isn't so good to me,

so then it's ok that it's not good. let's make this month. i know you don't have time or is yourself or the other thing to always only be positive or in a good mood. but how to find a middle ground between optimism and pessimism, between positive and negative feelings by accepting setbacks being able to change perspectives and not losing hope. you just click it by luckily one set of kind of happiness teacher named alfred bell about him. and he said something beautiful, the greatest happiness is hidden and misfortunate, and the few people look for it that is on helping us and happiness or balancing act . and that's just positive light. he has another beautiful saying it's different as the populace is not in a permanent state towards exactly why it's important not to see everything in life through rose colored good vibes. only glasses or sometimes being unhappy and feeling sad is just as much a part of a fulfilling life is happiness and optimism. the

2 animals also feel emotions more and more. research has a beginning to believe they do in one spaces of right. and for example, the served power and to come fixing other bits of to they've been defeated in fine and rats will come to the aid of other rights if they're in desperate straits, provided they know one another or are related. the edison's can also react strongly when edison self says to dawn. but emotions and where the animals happen is still the subject of the a general research with human semester as to what's next. so is what causes our emotions and what consequences they have. for instance, being in a bad mood there are plenty of reasons to be in

a bad mood, but the trick is very from person to person. the assessment is what put me in a bad mood because these crowds, you, people negates with people mention. and that's what, that's a bad weather. for example, most mostly other people still has dress daily life school starting the process flow. racism does if he does that i can change many things. i'd like to rush to vending that when things don't go the way they should them is i'm glad i am voice my mood to select the loan of it. capacity is a psychologist who specializes in emotions. he's listed on it is bad move to are more likely a side effect in evolutionary terms. what's crucial or emotions which usually correspond to certain aspects of moving the procedure or something happens and you need during yes and your mood is for so to speak, a side effect of the machinery we need in order to have emotions for me. and what's

the on so grief is sometimes very important, must be a be so is being angry. when comes we have reached the sign we must leave for these negative emotions. and can make is kind of prickly but moods often serve as a warning signal. so finding out what's behind that crushing feeling can be a learning experience choice to stimulate conductivity. so that can be a signal that something's not working well. most of that can lead you to take a look and see if there might be a reason for it. something you can changes and then come we come to release, happiness, hormones, non stop. but even if we could, would it be beneficial to be in a good mood all the time? it's accessories, it's a so just it's a fax that being in a positive mood has a function which no longer works if you're in a good mood all the time. but it's somebody, for example,

if you're striving for something specific as when you want to eat something or you want to have a nice social interaction with you. and then the expectation that it will be positive is something that springs you on. that was that sometimes, if this positive mood never diminished over until you just sit on the sofa, be happy and do nothing. so there really is something good about being in a bad news. so it can take time to recognize that one's mind makes them. and so if it's sometimes you want to concentrate on something and then a slightly negative mood can actually be beneficial. so what can feel that you can do what we can also scientifically prove that it has such affecting stuff, just believing, disassociate effect. the question is, how much and for how long one to be on, but feeling slightly melancholic or nostalgic. that's something we sleigh like, can even seek out on that scale. so because that makes is more focused self

critical items productive. so even 5 moods have that good site. at 1st glance, it might seem like nothing more than a bad mood, but for an estimated 1000000000 suffers world wide, it's a mental disorder, depression. and it's lucky many more people are affected that we don't really know for sure. the best way to test x. we have indicate that there are an especially high number of cases in africa. and also that more women than men suffer from many don't receive any one big reason why is that in many places, depression is not viewed as a serious illness. is depression or real illness. people who have not experienced depression or anything related to mental health. the thing that they people are missing is a part of and since i think it's treatable with therapy and medication, but uh, yeah, it's a real sickness. but if you're having some sort of an ideal depression,

it's very difficult to cultivate. even in antiquity. melancholy was already regarded as a sickness. at the beginning of the 20th century, german psychiatrist immediate criplin was probably the 1st person to use the term depression. today, experts agree. thing side is a normal reaction. it's a difficult times, it's understandable, but usually status goes away with a little time. depression is different. antonio, so this is a psychologist to spend 10 years researching depression and those most affected by it. we're talking about a mood disorder that can cause severe symptoms that can affect how you feel, how you think, how you handle the, the activities and in the medical community has certain diagnostic elements, which it establishes that it is a diag, a disorder or a diagnosis. today or this is considered how patients feel,

if they're eating or sleeping habits around of work, and how will they get through the day. if you decide on why spend this is just on in the mind, it's not a real disease then. and then we are venting people from receiving the treatment that they need to only certain types of people get depression and where they can have it. that needs to be normalized, just like any other physical, if i um, something through some sort of a insight issue isn't depressing myself. so i know how difficult it is. patricia fonseca is a senior physician for psychiatry and psychotherapy. she treats people with depression and has expensively studied the subject. in recent years, the spotlight is focused on lifestyle and chronic stress in my eyes, but in my always seeing, available, always online pressure to perform at work, always having to prove ourselves eating. those things are relevant because they

have an impact on the stress levels and i'll sleep habits that really have, but it's not just the lifestyle sickness, lifestyle, x, amount of, of us victims in february. so other factors life including likes, events like separations and home relationship, stress. the break ups and over lots of an important person is didn't mention the control childhood this time, whether it's from us to experience as over emotional look like a watch or shift file and would sonata from athletics to go beyond that. studies show the genes also play a role for that doesn't mean there's a depression. gene factors that can bring on depression include chronic stress, traumatic life experiences, and genetics. the antidepressants bad for you. i think anti depressants can be addictive,

but um i'm not sure about is just a man that everybody knows. every be honest, i haven't his id, i took medication splittings id and i'm going them and it's pretty hard. my understanding is that anything that is even noted by someone that fully knows, i lied. why the contents like a doctor or for a person that have care may 1st time yourself. many people are critical of the medications. some people even claim that antidepressants only benefit this pharmaceutical industry as so, and it's biased because it's such a double edged sword have cuz he may have seen the anti depressants, so really no more successful them to see bodies from mild depression. we're still on that for it. have my blood samples lives to their customs. so we would try to treat mild depression to 3 psychotherapy and behavioral change behind and by the images span of spam. but with moderate severe depression, that was a clear effect compared to the pa c button you by the dim plug table effect. also

antidepressants don't work the same for everyone. so it can take a while to find the right ones. but can people help themselves? healthy lifestyle is a good way of preventing an accompanying your treatment and preventing relapse and there is evidence for that app. now with that, then more to more than just word less, you need help. your physical activity is really important in the bottom line is antidepressants. on that per se, and a healthy lifestyle can increase their effectiveness as any other signal. if it's not about anything that's your own fault, it's just some something that some people have. and it's treatable that says someone out there who's suffering from depression during the time is about to pull out. so feel free and they can pick medication and walk me through to that video at home when something isn't working is it should you can try to fix it if you can.

but some problems are just too complex, then it's time to call the professional for help. it's the same with issues involving mental health. the problem is in many parts of, for both mental health professionals are few and far between. but if you're lucky enough to have a choice, there are a few things to parents, sign the therapist, people just like you and kim, they have full hold, quite different views. so i'm very convinced by that particular therapeutic approaches. if the client wants to deviate from that, a therapy can end unpleasantly. it's important for therapist to be able to adjust to an individual situation and to carefully check with a particular approach is the right fit. having a clear roadmap as essential that helps keep the therapy from drifting along and to sleep. how should the course proceed? why is lots planned?

the milestones, what all of a plan should be discussed with the client's depending on the country therapies might be offered by mental health professionals with the range of titles among them . counselor, psychologist, all psycho therapist. but in many places, the field isn't strictly regulated, and at times there's no prescribed or uniform training. critics complain about this shortcoming. so when looking for therapist, the amount and direction of training one is received can be a central issue. as the question of whether they are allowed to prescribe pharmaceuticals approaches this a. but the goal of therapy should always be to help clients achieve good mental health. there are many forms of therapy, some seek to draw out childhood memories or focus on dreams and the sub conscious practitioners, the those approaches as important ways to work so deeply seated issues or traumatic

experiences. these therapies are sometimes, for instance, helpful and cases of depression. they involve a lot of talking, especially on the part of the client, and then there's behavior therapy. the goal here is to learn, learn behavior. this can help peoples, for example, quick periods in diety or eating disorder. clients learn to confront the problems in concrete ways. for example, through role playing. whatever type of therapy is chosen, it should be scientifically recognized and should of course, also help got feeling place a central role. how does the client feel during and especially after a session? does the therapist seem tired? are they really involved? because all successful therapies have one thing in common to work,

the patient 1st has to feel understood in the drive to maintain mental phantoms. there's also a lot you can do on your own. like pursuing a healthy lifestyle, enjoying pleasant company, i'm exercising bracket. any. relax. ation is also impulsive. there are lots of activities out there that are supposed to help you relax. but do they really? they promise relaxation at the touch of a button or they get into this one is really going for it. it's kind of this feeling of pain and uh on the is experimenting with gadgets that are supposed to relax your muscles. meanwhile, others are looking to relax and let's say more holistic ways. antonia band and sabina all have high stress jobs, and nature could help them find ways to wind down. studies show that it can and one

research projects that monitored stressed by a pulse and location. the scientists concluded that the greatest physical and psychological recovery takes place in natural settings, study liter. i go for linda and says to have the fact. nature should challenge your sensors in the long, soft frequency for landscape. it's a challenging enough, then it also quickly grows bar and it just doesn't provoke any. all it's installing . now is getting ready to have what promises to be a memorable experience on an i q pressure, matt. this is steve isaacs, the q pressure. matt has over 60000 pointed little plastic tense attached, and i'm supposed to live directly on it with my bare skin decline and then these sharp little guys will drill into my back. that's our head supposed to help against the back pain headaches, and also reduce the stress with c. what does an expert have to say the rest is doing? that's what we stimulation via the small trunks,

causes an increase in circulation. and the high above the flow means that's a good supply to the muscles, which helps them simply relax a bit and just an inch, but there's a lot of so in associated with headaches between your shoulder blades and stimulating the circulation entry. next thing, the muscles often has a favorable effect on headaches. it can reduce them to support you, begin speaking of once, we'll connect alice to still able to to okay, let's see how on a react. oh good. it's just not as bad as i thought. it's okay. actually, 20 minutes later and she feels very relaxed in the woods wellbeing has also set in after about 20 minutes. use it was it was really pleasant here. yeah. maybe. yeah, we just agreed that somehow we like it here. logged on touch and parents was just asking why that is understood. and i think we few anonymously decided that it's kind of finally some forest. it's more calm, the green nature. that's what we like,

isn't we have fall from the stress from that place? it's very otherwise. experience stressing and the the natural sounds smells and colors of the forest are kind of fun for the so we brief, more deeply grow, calmer and more attentive and rediscover slowness. what psychologists call being mindful for us surroundings can help that process. some kids that went off, i seen bitten, definitely mindfulness. we usually mean a judgment free experience. the yeah, no i the that is that i perceive myself as i am right now is all my soul 9 get down both positive and negative. you can get the result value that i'm going to do to the and a man of speaking. i take a step back and simply observe myself emphasis, duration, and say, and this is how i am. this is how i feel right now. this is what us both a ring me right now that, that helps me sort out. my varies and thoughts and getting some clarity yet. and then i also feel like i'm completely and so he has no guns, any feelings yet for the meeting. and until to off paying attention to things,

the nature is positive. it's also something you do with all your sense of somehow and the most of them i do it often. also at home, i actually do it for relaxation, is transmission. fact you have to find the time and also prepare for it type if i'd force myself by saying tomorrow at 3 pm, i head into the forest and sit there. and i don't think that's so effective as with most effective. but if you have stressful days, you probably have to schedule that time, but i'm gonna want something that works at the push of a button. maybe try a massage gun with different attachments. and i tried this one. it looks the least dangerous. you can adjust the intensity importance for different body regions, although i can't reach my bag with my short little arms which yet it feels good to see the. 0 the be all of us from good. it feels pretty good to me for pain and

relaxation law. that one's funnel maybe a more classic massage. this electric massage cushion employees sets of rotating spears. cough and what i think is really cool is what i have it up here now. kindness. but i can also pull the pillow farther down and then come, then it reaches places. i wouldn't be able to get to with the massage gun dot com all by kenneth relieve stress and fact pain my mother. so if you make yourself a cup of tea and sit down with a good book, why using it? it's relaxing, but it doesn't have a long term effect. it's just about the moment or taking out of everyday life of them i to court. and that's what it's about after all, briefly immersing yourself in another world. what does the woods or on an acupressure mat? a brief journey into the forest or your own body, a timeout that every once in
