Yes I can help you
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
First of all we all have emotions but they are mostly situation related. When there is something pleasant we become happy and when we experience something bad we feel gloomy.
Having said this feeling of low without any reason is probably not normal. Mostly when it is part of disorder it has other features like loss of interest, energy, appetite, weight, sleep disturbanceamong others. If it is affecting your functioning in different area of life (Social, occupational, familial, academic etc) definitely it could be indicative of depression and other disorders.
If you have above features (which I described about the symptoms and functioning) there is definite need to see a doctor.
In case you feel just low without any accompanying symptoms it is more of a result of stress and managing stress likely to help you.
I am writing down few of the strategies that will help you in management of stress leading to reduction of your symptoms and improvement in your functioning.
1. Diet: Ensure intake of adequate quantity of fiber. 2 servings of vegetable salad and 2 servings of fruits( One preferable citrus fruit).
Avoid junk food and fast food especially pizza, burgers and excessive sweets
2. Ensure adequate water intake: Recommended intake of water is 2 to 3 liter a day. Insufficient intake of water could be a contributing factor in causation of symptoms.
3. Early morning Exercise: Brisk walking for 30 minutes at a stretch preferably in garden will be very helpful. Make it a daily habit and incorporate in your lifestyle. Believe me it makes wonders.
4. Avoid tea/coffee/ nicotine and alcoholic beverages.
5. Start your day with a glass of Lemon water with 2 spoons of honey added.
6. Don't take work so seriously: We all have the feeling to excel in our respective fields and don't spend adequate time with our own self trying to understand our own needs.
Spend time with your family and friends.
7. While working take frequent regular breaks: Taking regular breaks will not waste the time, but it will definitely increase the productivity, concentration and reasoning. Take break for 5 minutes every 30 minutes.
8. Avoid late night socialization
9. Avoid starring for longer time at the computer screen or TV for longer time
10. Steam inhalation before going to sleep will be very refreshing
11. Multivitamin and Calcium supplement.
12. Meditation and Yoga
Wishing you a very happy and healthy life
