How To Convey Your Feelings Other Than Words

By Jack Timberlake

Sometimes, saying the words without even literally meaning them is not good. When he says he does care, he should mean the right actions for someone who truly cares. If he says he will come for you, he should no matter what time, what day or wherever you are when you most need him.

The though here is, words aren't just words to speak about or to give out whenever necessary. You have to deal with the right action if you're giving out the right words.

When he does says he care for you but he let you walk on your own during an overnight job because he can't fetch you with his lame reasons of unable to go on your location, then this is something you might need to assess first.

Or if he says I'll catch you when you fall, but leave you behind when you are in your downiest part of life, then he is someone unworthy of anything.

Saying that he truly feels the same way might be the opposite. Or saying that he truly cares might not be truly true. Or worst if he says he loves you more than anything might be just plainly a playful joke.

If that would be the case, then please do assess yourself and think if he is worthy enough for you. As mentioned, words are easy to build and say but it's hard to stand with. No one would ever want to be fooled around with pure words. You want the sincerity in it through actions.

It is not a matter of making promises out of words, or reassuring you out of words. It is something more an important. It is about showing the real thing and it is about being true to ones feelings.

In that way, words can be truly acceptable. But if the opposite still goes out, then maybe it's time to call the relationship a quit before going further and making it more harder for you to let go because you are completely hypnotized by the lame words.

Giving Support To A Depressed Friend

By Karen Hanley

Because of the high rate of depression in the country right now, you will most likely know someone experiencing clinical depression. When you are faced with a person who you believe is in this situation, do you know how to handle it?

It has become increasingly critical for everyone to understand how to deal with someone who is depressed. Who knows, the person who gets helped out may even be you.

There is no doubt that depression is a scary subject to talk about. Often we will shrug what the person said off, tell them to get over it, and then change the conversation completely. This is not the ideal solution, as it is only going to intensify his or her depression. Instead, you should open a discussion with the person, and ask what he or she feels and why.

When he starts sharing his emotions and feelings, offer your unsolicited advice. Sometimes, these people just need someone they could pour their heart out to and not someone who would lecture them on what they should do instead.

If you feel like your friend is on the brink of going suicidal or if he talks about suicide, do not ignore it. Try to keep him company until such time that you know he is feeling better.

If a person doesn't want to discuss what they're feeling, don't force them to. It will only aggravate the situation and put you in an uncomfortable position. Just be there for him or her while they go through this difficult time.

You might not guess it but by just simply being around this person, you could actually prevent them from killing themselves. Many folk who've had depression have said that the blackness has lifted when they have been around someone who is compassionate and cares. You should try this compassionate and caring individual.

Finally, remember that you're only one person. Having a depressed friend in need can certainly take a toll on you. You may want to consult a professional to help your friend, and get them back on the road to a happier, healthier lifestyle. Sometimes, all a person may need is a simple medication.
