A low mood commonly follows a negative life experience, a personal loss, long term stress, or anxiety or when we have burned the candle at both ends physically, emotionally or socially for too long.
Low mood effects how we think about ourselves, our situation and emotions. It lowers our motivation to do things and impacts our brain and body chemistry. When we are in a low mood our mind presents us with doubts, problems and regrets, believing that if we get rid of problems we will feel great again! That seems sensible until we remember that we always had some problems, some big, some small and despite them we often felt good, sometimes even great. To lift a low mood it helps to choose the right activities that target depressed thoughts, emotions, actions and sensations. |
