2. Most people nowadays are having difficult, troubled and extremely stressed times and it’s easy to find yourself
depressed. Depression doesn’t choose its victim. Even rich and successful people often find themselves
drowned and drained because of it. Sadly, depression is capable of taking your life or someone else’s. Even if
you can endure it physically, it’s still effective in sucking the life out of you. Fortunately, there are ways to
combat depression before it gets worse. In addition to getting help from your doctor or therapist, here are some
things that you can do to feel better.
Exercise. People who are depressed don’t have the drive for physical activities. Most of them just
want to lock themselves in their rooms and stay in bed. Doing so would just make things worse.
Exercise can help remedy that by stimulating the body to produce endorphins. Endorphins are the
body’s natural pain and stress fighters, and can give you that natural high without leading to addiction.
So whenever you’re feeling down, get up and have a walk, jog, dance, or bike if you prefer. Yoga,
breathing exercises and meditation will do wonders as well.
Eat right. Depression can lead to loss of appetite, or in some cases, overeating. Either way, it’s not
healthy. Be mindful of what you eat. Have a balanced diet and stick to fruits and vegetables. Dark
chocolate for dessert is also a good choice as it contains antioxidants, boosts endorphin levels and also
contains serotonin which is the body’s natural antidepressant. But be careful not to overindulge.

3. Get out more. It may not be applicable at all times especially during a bad weather, but if you have a
chance to go out then do so. Visit old places that remind you of fun memories or new places that can
give a refreshed feeling such as the beach or somewhere with beautiful scenery. If you can have
someone accompany you the better. Breathe in fresh air, absorb the warmth of the sunlight and enjoy
the beauty of nature. You are born to enjoy these things.
Express yourself. Depression blocks a person’s creativity. Whether painting, singing, playing music,
writing, or simply imagining, these talents simply do not work when depressed. Forcing your creative
juices to flow mostly results to frustration and can lead to further depression. Find a different way to
express yourself. If you can’t paint the picture that you want, then visit an art gallery and get
inspiration. Listen to music. Read a funny book or watch a funny movie with a friend. Expose yourself
to things that can bring you happiness or laughter. Happiness is still inside you even if you’re
depressed. You just have to help yourself let it out.

4. Find a spiritual connection. You were born surrounded by people who love you. They took care of
you and filled you with love and happiness. Never forget that you are important, loved and you are not
alone. Find these people and connect with them. Be honest with your feelings and let it out. Family
and friends can give you insights and advice which can help you clear things up in your head. Most of
the time, their presence alone is enough to give you a sense of security. Do not let depression shut you
out from the world. Lastly, do not forget to pray. If you’re alone, now is the time to connect to God.
Talk to him, cry if you have to. Depression is like a caged animal that’s desperate to get out. The more
you keep it in, the more it’s going to destroy you from the inside. Let go and let God.
These are just some of the ways that can help you fight depression. Reading this guide alone will not help
much; you must get up and act on it. It’s never too late to find happiness in whatever situation you may be.
