Sensitive people are difficult to survive and they enjoy no or very few moments of bliss. They are deep observers, feelers, and thinkers but they hesitate to react to the situations they feel and are hurt by. Being shelled, they are mostly melancholic and depressed.
Introversion and over-thinking go simultaneously with sensitivity. Being sensitive; you observe every little thing happening around you and feel it deeply. Being an over-thinker you think about different phases of that thing and naturally, get attracted by those aspects that make you gloomy. Introverts keep things to themselves and get depressed, anxious and insomniac etc. This is how it goes on. The outcome is ‘Sensitivity leads to Depression’
Now the question is, how to triumph over depression and ferret out happiness and peace. Sensitivity is natural trait and is difficult to eradicate completely but overthinking and introverted-ness can be compensated by mere determination and craving for peace.
Ask yourself these questions:
1- Why am I being sad or depressed all the time?
2- What is it bringing to me?
3- Don’t I want to be happy?
4- Don’t I deserve happiness and peace?
The answer to these questions can be summarized as ‘I want to be happy and I deserve it; to bring the best out of me.
Be ready to climb the mountain of depression and reach the peak of peace. Make friends with people that spread a smile, share laughter and gift you candy memories. Stop thinking about the things that sadden you, instead mediate yourself with happy moments, beloved people and their memories, your achievements etc.
“At every moment of our lives,We all have one foot in a fairy taleand the other in the abyss”-Paulo Coelho Eleven Minutes
So, it’s up to you to incline towards the gleeful thoughts or the gloomy thoughts. The more you have control over your thoughts, the happier you are. Always seek happiness in little things. Try to bring smiles on others faces and then see your soul smiling because there is no feeling more beautiful than being the reason for someone’s smile.
