My group consist of Ayuz, Malis, Syida, Durrah and me. We have decided to choose block pattern number three. Our essay topic is about depression. I will put our essay for you all to read it..
“Depression is possibly the oldest virus that has afflicted everybody on the earth. The medical term ‘depressive disorder’ is a group of symptoms that imitates a tremendously sad. The intensity of sadness is greater in severity and duration compared to normal bouts of sadness” (based on Amanda Kahler; 2010).
Controlling our emotions is an important thing to learn because if we do not learn how to manage our problems properly it could lead to depression. However, everybody nowadays that experience depressions which may happen due to too much problems in their daily life that could lead them towards suicide, disturbance of mental disorder and becoming a less productive of individual.
Being housewives is not an easy task. It needs sacrifice. The number of woman having depression is increasing days by days. Women confused about their role in home are one of the causes. They tend to play the role as a father, and mother in the same time. There are types of men who neglected their obligation as a father and thus this cause the wife to having depression. Women with career are not uncommon these days. Can you imagine careered woman and being housewives in the same time? Who would not feel depressed? And reconcile with having many children needs mental and physical strength.
One of the effects of having too much house chores among housewives may lead to suicide. Suicide can consider as a complication of depression illness that courage the housewives to take that idiot action. According to “Suicide and Depression”, (2012), up to 15% of who face critically depressed die by suicide. It also can be increased from time to time. So how should we solve these phenomena? As a housewife, the best treatment of depression among housewives is not only depends on the medical help and therapy but also need rely on family and friends support.
As a consequence of having too much depression may leads to mental disorder. As normal human it is common if we have problems. However, if we do not how to manage our problems wisely it could be a burden on ourselves. Sometimes, this depression could make one become insomniac. This is because they think too much about the problem thus, they cannot think properly and this may lead to mental problems or personality disorder. In addition to it, we know when we are having less rest our brain cannot function or work appropriately. Thereby, people will start to imagine something that rare or an ordinary which obviously can affect the mental.
Consequently, depressed individuals are more liable to become slow and less productive. They tend to be indecisive and not confident of themselves thus, making the individual more vulnerable in making mistakes in their daily routines. Besides that, these depressed individuals are less likely to be friendly with their friends and also family members. They are more prone to being alone and becoming anti-social. Sometimes also, we could see that these depressed individuals are more likely to suffer chronic fatigue, which would be very stressful to them and could also make them aggressive.
Depression could be overcome if we learn how to manage our problems properly. Suicide, disturbance of mental disorder and becoming a less productive individual could be solved by many alternatives such as meeting with a counselor, having a vacation and many much more. Although when there is too much problems, we should always find an alternative to overcome it.
