Don't be Depressed! It will turn out right.
There are common types of Depression. Are you aware of of that?
>The Blues<
It is the most common type of depression. A person may feel weepy,sad, discourage, unable to cope, hopelessness. These moods may e brought on by excessive fatigue, excitement, or stress, or sometimes no apparent reason. Such depressions are short and self-timing. They rarely require treatment. people commonly bounce back to their usual selves in a few days.
>Reactive Depressions<
These depressions typically result from intense life crisis, such as losing a loved one or job, going through legal separation or annulment, having children leave home, moving to a new location, or suffering a serious illness. At such times people are often unable to cope with their regular lives and responsibilities. A time of pulling aback, of withdrawing, is needed to allow healing to take place. Supportive measures will usually take care of this, although more aggressive treatment may be needed if the depression is severe or prolonged.
>Biological Depressions<
In contrast , these depressions come and go, usually with no discernible cause. They are often inherited, passed down in a family from parent to child. These depression usually respond to treatment, although they may persist for several months despite treatment.
>Somatic Depressions<
These more serious depressions usually interfere with adequate physical functions. Symptoms include problem in almost every system of the body, but they commonly involved gastrointestinal tract and the sleepy cycle. Some individuals will deny being depressed, but their body functions turn down, and their physical state has all the aspects of depression. That's why psychiatrists call this a somatic depression-a depression expressed by altered body function:the body function is depressed even though the conscious mind may not.
>Psychotic Depressions<
These are depressions in which individuals lose touch with reality; they require professional care.

Many factors can play a role in the occurrence of vaginal infections and discharge.
What can you do to reduce your risk of vaginal infections? Practicing these simple tips significantly reduces your risk of getting a vaginal infection:
Always wear white cotton panties. Cotton allows your genital area to breath, helping the vaginal are to stay dry. It's also a good idea to wear panties only during the day and not at night when you are sleeping.
Don't use vaginal douches.
Never use petroleum jelly or oils for vaginal lubrication. This can create a breeding ground for bacteria to grow.
If you are being treated for a vaginal infection, use all the medication as directed even if you think you are better.
Don’t have sexual intercourse during treatment for a vaginal infection and until you have no more symptoms.
Avoid vaginal contact with products that can irritate the vagina such as feminine hygiene products, perfumed or deodorant soaps, powders, lotions, and bubble baths.
Always avoid prolonged wearing of tight-fitting clothing such as bathing suits, exercise wear, pantyhose, or slacks.
Many times, vaginal infections cause intense itching – don’t scratch! Itching infected, inflamed areas will only make things worse.
If your period starts while you are using vaginal creams or suppositories, continue your regular medication schedule during your period and don’t use tampons – use pads instead.
If you are self-treating a vaginal infection and your symptoms are not improved after treatment, see your health care provider for a vaginal exam. Don’t use any vaginal products or treatments for 48 hours before your appointment.
Always use condoms during sexual intercourse unless you are in a long-term monogamous relationship.
Always wipe from front to back after urination or having a bowel movement. Improper wiping easily spreads bacteria to the vagina and may lead to vaginal discharge and infection.
Of course good basic hygiene, plenty of sleep, and well-rounded nutrition with an appropriate fluid intake are always good idea for vaginal health, as well as for your overall health and well-being.
