Even though the effects of depression might be all too tangible for you, depression is simply not real. If believe yourself to be suffering from depression, it’s just your imagination because depression is the direct result of your subconscious mind’s obsession with useless thoughts that were impressed upon it during your childhood years. It is normal for your subconscious mind to dwell on the past – everyone’s does – it’s simply that the crap that yours is focused on is probably a little (or a lot) off the beaten track. This is not your fault – your subconscious mind was impressed with those thoughts by others, people and events that made you feel bad, guilty, upset during your childhood years.

Whilst it’s normal for your subconscious to focus on out-dated deeply-rooted thoughts, it’s doing you damage – you can see it and feel it in your everyday life. Again, there’s no need to feel bad about this – everyone’s subconscious mind is doing them damage – at least you have the advantage over other normal people in realizing that you’ve got a problem.

But that problem is completely down to what your subconscious mind is paying attention to. You must drag your subconscious focus away from those self-destructive thoughts and redirect your attention to the one place and time that’s real, the one time and place that you can really live – the here and now. If you succeed in turning your attention to the present moment you’ll experience something that you probably have never experienced before – depression isn’t real, there’s no such thing as fear or worry, there’s just a wonderful world full of possibilities and opportunities – and quantum physics proves that that wonderful world is simply waiting to respond to your hopes and dreams.

Medication or pills won’t enable you experience the difference between reality and the fiction of stress – they may well make the pain subside for a while but your subconscious mind will always slink back to those thoughts that aren’t real but just an imprint of a past long gone. The only way that you will experience reality – one cleansed of depression – is to learn how to clear your mind. No hassle! Because, as a child, you had a completely clear mind – that’s how those bad feelings were impressed upon you in the first place. All you have to do now is re-train yourself to pay attention to what your five senses are telling you, right here, right now – without putting your subconscious mind’s warped interpretation onto the facts.

I know that the best way to relearn how to focus your mind on to the reality of your five senses is meditation – preferably, for starters, guided meditation. It may take you a while to get used to it, you may find it difficult, but a tiny bit of commitment will bring about the incredible benefit of your being able to live your life to the full.
