When you are depressed you are often anxious as well. This can be soothed by listening to music or doing a handicraft. Something like knitting or crochet can be helpful partly because it is repetitive. This takes the mind off the worries and you also end up with something beautiful or useful and feel your day has not been altogether wasted.The brain is kept busy with the handicraft and is not able to worry as much as if you are doing nothing.Working on any project is good. For the men perhaps a little model making in the shed would be helpful. Anything is good if it requires a certain amount of brain work.Painting and calligraphy would also fit the bill. I like playing short mat bowls. The skill needed takes my mind off the worrying.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
