Researchers have discovered that depression can trigger a heart attack or stroke when under emotional duress. Which means that there's important reasons why we must nurse our broken heart back to a healthy one.
Individuals who reported mild to moderate depressive symptoms like loss of sleep and lack of appetite showed more signs of artery thickness compared to their more emotionally balanced peers. If your depression is mild, an increase in physical activity will help to increase your endorphins naturally. Also other healthy habits of eating right, avoiding alcohol, getting enough sleep and reducing your stress will also balance your system.
There is no quick fix to depression and if you are experiencing depressive symptoms for two weeks or more you should seek the counsel of a professional to discuss your treatment options.
Take care,
