Answer 1

The correct answer is C. Participate more often in activities they consider pleasant and rewarding.

Explanation:

Depression is a common mental issue that affects an individual's mood. As a result, the individual experiences permanent negative feelings such as sadness or lack of interest. This leads to a vicious cycle that involves negative thoughts and feelings that lead to a lack of interest and participation in activities, then this leads to feelings of guilt that leads to sleeping issues, and this causes negative thoughts and feelings.

Due to this, one of the ways to break this cycle is to "participate more often in activities they consider pleasant and rewarding" because in this way interest is recovered and therefore feelings of guilt disappear which breaks the cycle and leads to less sleeping issues and negative thoughts/feelings.
