Waster Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Like happiness is the opposite of unhappiness i think resilience is the opposite of depression. But i cannot find any information where this notion is shared. Resilience: optimism, high self-esteem, extravert, strong bonds, social support, action oriented, active, able to cope. Depression: pessimism, low self-esteem, introvert, weak relationships, lonely, thoughts and worry, passive, not able to cope. I think this is a useful thought, because when i look around it seems treated as seperate and loosely related concepts. Let me hear what you think.

Guest NateC Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Does introvert/extrovert fit in the definitions? Or maybe I'm just doomed to depression. Hm, the research does indicate that extroverts are happier, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraversion_and_introversion#cite_note-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
