I am a student. I suffered with severe OCD, depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder. Last year when I was in std 12, I suffered with the most severe panic attack and intrusive thoughts of my life. I researched a lot to know more about myself. After knowing my problem, it took me almost a year to reach out for help. But I did it. I am on the path of recovery. I am much more stronger than before. I still have intrusive thoughts because recovery is a long process, but I'll fight #ShareToInspire

Gravity is also needed to germinate a seed other than temperature, water and air. Because with out gravity, the root will go up side down. Similarly the growth of the atoms, the brain. We make yoga by making our head upside down. To supply blood. We can see a red mark on a thread structure inside egg embrow. That later become chicken as it expand on heat. Similar exercise is performed in formation of atom from package of energy or quanta. This quanta grows in presence of gravity.

I am an IRS officer who has battled Major Depressive Disorder for a long time. I used medication, psychotherapy, yoga, meditation and exercise for fighting the illness. I've written a book titled 'The D Word: A Survivor's Guide to Depression' to spread awareness about mental health, to fight stigma and also to hold out hope for other sufferers and their families. In recovery now, and I've been free of anti-depressants for more than 1000 days and continue my work for mental health awareness.

Birth with sound/normal physical mental health is great gift to human beings for life. At later stage - physical cause, hormonal imbalance, shortfall of neuron connectivity, competitions, aspirations, stress, issues/problems, unknown reasons all causing degradation of mental health. One should practice, how he/she fight like lone crusader

Respected sir, Namaste. #Mental Illness:- It is caused due to biological or environmental factors. Gene also plays an important role in transfer of mental illness from parents to their children.
