What helped me was exercise (yoga, gym, swimming, badminton), cutting out junk food and eating healthy and getting 9 hours of sleep. I applied for a new job, spent time with friends doing fun things and took up a few new hobbies. I also painted my room yellow, gave away things I didn’t need to charity and bought a few nice things for my bedroom to make it look good. As I kept myself busy and the days went by, I felt less depressed and I am now really happy. Sitting at home crying, praying and reading the Qur’an wont always help. You should keep yourself busy. Think about your life, what is depressing you? how can you fix it? I am glad that this article just didn’t mention praying and fasting and that you talked about doing charity work, going for walks and taking up a hobby because that really does help with depression.

am glad it’s working for everyone else. IT’s definitely NOT working for me. I’ve fought depression my whole life and here I am as a middle aged adult and depression takes me over, and I feel Allah doesn’t care about me. If He did, maybe I’d be cured already. Just how I feel right now.

Mental disorders.. exist who created humans? Who created the human mind? Who gave man intellect? Who taught man elequent speech? Who cures man and responds to the one that is desperate? Who will we all return to? Everyone will suffer in this world at one point in their life that doesn’t mean ur a bad person or evil or anything like that it means Allah loves u and wants u to have the best in the hereafter which u may not be able to achieve by actions etc… People with mental health illnesses just need people to show them that they still love them they need people to talk to them for a while they don’t require all your time just some… Hardships do come to an end there’s countless people who have gone through hardships and then came back to ease rather than getting frustrated we need to adopt patience and make lots of dhikr and dua and be patient on the cures we seek also eat well sleep well eat nutritious foods look after ourselves the best we can and use Quran and read it in a language we understand so we can benefit from Gods message… And understanding the Quran will help us in life Insha’Allah… Mental health illnesses are seen as spiritual illnesses in Islam so ruqya cupping etc are prescribed for them… Healthy people have a duty of care to help their brothers and sisters who are sick to help them on their journey to seek a cure… If people don’t become helpful how will we ever be a United ummah??

Feel depressed without Allah and feel depressed with Allah which is easier? Talk to yourself or talk to someone which is better? Satan the cursed is our clear enemy he whispers into our hearts and he wants us to deviate and lose hope and become disbelievers but we shouldn’t do actions and say things of this nature out loud and then regret them someday.. Whispers subside when we seek refuge in Allah from Satan the cursed.. It’s our fault we don’t learn and use all the tools Allah has provided us with then we think that by getting angry we take anything away from Allah? Nope Allah says He is rich and He sees us as poor.. He also says He does not need us but rather we need Him… He is independent whereas we are dependent on sustenance from Him… If Allah was to take away the water and food you eat… Who would provide u with food and water? If He was to take away the air that u breathe who could provide u with air? Satan in the hereafter will tell the people he fooled that he had no authority over them he whispered and they responded.. Allah has promised and satan promises Allah promises the truth whereas Satan promises lies and deception just to lead to hell Allah. Wants to reward us with heaven for a little hardship.. And hardship never lasts forever… So why lose hope and throw everything away? Struggle on just a little more Allah will send ease at the right moment when the lesson has been learned that the world isn’t for our enjoyment don’t get lost in its false temporary enjoyment and hardships are a wake up call so Alhumdulillah for giving us hardships and if we are patient rewards and a good life Alhumdulillah to Allah always. And I wish not to be the ungrateful to my Creator… If I forget Him I lose If He forgets me I’m doomed… All praise is due to Allah the Lord of the worlds… read surah falaq and surah an nas remember Allah ask Him for ease and u will get it Allah said verily in Allah’s remembrance do hearts find rest and that’s true…
