A few notes about the topic depression (from episode 3)
Social relationships/connections are key to happiness. Attune yourself to a engaged, involved, committed life; befriend or stay close to the competent and caring individuals (illustrated in Mike's story), and life can be constructed.
Attitudes towards some methods:
1. Self-help books doubtfully work- without supporting scientific evidence, they could be dangerous.
2. Positive psychology might help by focusing on the strengths rather than the negatives, while it's not magic in solving problems triggered by rational hardship.
3. Meditation might decrease anxieties and depressions to a large extent-- a worthy try to do mental exercises daily.
