veer, it will pass with time. that's the thing with emotion, it is never permanent. i would suggest regularly (everyday if possible) going into sangat and sitting down and listening to the katha / kirtan. don't worry about what's going on around you. the energy will help boost you up. other than that, you can do a brain dump and write down everything that's bothering you. you don't need to act on all of this right away, just to write it down helps take a load off of the brain. than pick some things to work on this week, and try to get started on them, one step at a time. What do you want in life? A goal can help with motivation. I also was feeling very flat for a long time until I started teaching a somewhat challenging Gurmat class. Seva (thinking of others rather than thinking of my own problems) really helps me improve my mood. Also, if you need help, go get some help, there is no harm in that. there are also many things you can do to boost your mood, including the following: regular exercise, particularly yoga/martial arts/aerobic exercise, healthy food, supplements like omega 3 fatty acids, and use of flower remedies like mustard flower remedy or gorse flower remedy.

I highly recommend you read Ultrawellness by Dr. Mark Hyman, as he provides natural methods to help improve moods. Here's his blog http://drhyman.com/.

Let me know if you need anything.

go to doctor to be assessed. Keep doing simran or mool mantr. The more lonely you are the more closer you will get to act out your sucidial thoughts. Then I don't know how old your are, If you are at an age to be married then I would say talk to someone of your senior to find you a life's partner. If you are in a married life I would suggest that you go somewhere where you have breathing space. Do all this while staying on track with Gurbani.

im an amritdhari sikh and i try my best to do nitnem and seva etc. but life has gotten so difficult the past couple of years... its hard to deal with all the problems. im sick of living in depression and have thought of taking my life many times, but i know that is against the will of waheguru.

so how do i get out of this depression and stop these thoughts???

Honestly, when i was having the same thoughts, I ended up at this random website on the web and it listed all the possible ways to committ suicide, BUT, every single way would not work. There's a chance of survival no matter what you think. Would you really want to fail? NO. so just don't do it. ummm I think you're putting up with a lot of stuff. Just don't put up with anything. You have a life and you need to live it. Good or bad. Try to talk to someone close. Everyone thinks of suicide at one point and usually the deciding factor is HOPE. You're an amritdhari Sikh. You have hope. Just stop putting up with whatever it is . Take a break. Let things go. Stay in the present moment. Do Jaap Sahib. It helps in strengthening your aura. Theres about 8 billion people on this earth and you have it better than most of them. Ask someone who's doing a life in jail and he'll tell you how bad he wants to get out. Just snap out of it man. Change everything. Change your daily routine. Do an ardaas. Ardaas will help you!
