I think I am in a state of depression. I feel down, sad and depressed. Lately, I am always stressed, burnt out and taking much pressure from work and studies. I've been busy attending both my regular work and my advanced studies. I can't just ignore, escape from or forget my work which provides me a living and my studies which I really wanted to achieve. I like to unwind and rest but my time won't allow. I cannot take a long vacation from work either. I cannot be allowed to take long leave of absence due to my responsibilities at work. And now, I am depressed. I am worried because I am not having much enthusiasm, energy and inspiration in accomplishing my tasks. Please provide me some advice on how should I fight against this depression. Any suggestion will be taken positively. Thank you in advance.

I dissuade you to use antidepressants and medicines because they create dependence and they are harmful. I reccomend you, instead, of using natural remedies, the Iperic helps a lot and also the Bach's Flowers.

Yeah, I am not thinking of taking pills for that matter. I havent known or heard of Iperic or Bach's flower, I apologize. I'll just research about them. I may be interested. Thanks for the advice anyway. ;)
