Being sad is being human. We all go through cycles of depression that can make our world crumble. Not only is this harmful emotionally to yourself, but it can effect the people around you in this manner as well. A great deal of time was spent working out a system that takes us through what I call “The Crash Phase”, a moment in time where depression first starts to effect your body. This calculated phase is a personal representation of my own life, but it some situations can be applied globally to all persons.

Please note the chart does not describe what you’re seeking as “happiness”. It could be anything from material to romance. Please also note that step 3 brings about an “automatic crash phase” with no reason, as step 3 in itself can be considered a crash phase. Lastly, note the recovery phase between step 5 and step 1. You could consider the only successful part in the chart as failure. It still needs a lot of work but the first stages of The Crash Phase are well underway.
