You may think this is weird, but colors have a real impact on mood. All those earth tones that have been so trendy the last few years have not been good for those who are in a depression or who are vulnerable to depression. The good news is that the earth tone trend is over and lighter, blue/green/grey colors are in (watch HGTV or Benjamin Moore commercials if you dont believe me hahaha). However, who cares about the trends, what I care about is how color impacts your mood. What makes you feel better? What lightens up the room and your mood? What colors brighten you up when you are surrounded by them. Ive spend the last 7 months re-painting my house as a depression preventer. Yes, its eaten up my weekends, but its also made me feel that I accomplished something and I feel positively peppy when I walk in my house now. Try it. And remember, you are entitled to a better day. And, heres the link to my Quiet the Monkeys youtube video just as a reminder to keep breathing properly - another depression prevention method. youtube/watch?v=xve3yEZLOoI Brenda McCreight Ph.D. Hazardous Parenting
