#HowIFightDepression
Whenever I feel depressed I give myself sometime to recover. I meditate and take deep breaths. Talking to your own self can be very effective. Don’t take depression lightly and try to recover from it. It will help for sure. #HowIFightDepression

#HowIFightDepression 1. ADMIT IT; It’s ok. It is your body trying to deal with something just like fever fights infection. And once you share it with others…it’ll blow you away how many others have it too.

#HowIFightDepression 4. DO SOME HOMEWORK; Journaling is very therapeutic. Just a line a day is ok (“I feel..”). It’s funny how after a few entries you see patterns & triggers. I also use a workbook #MindOverMood by Christine Padesky @Padesky & there are others but check reviews

6. NEVER SURRRNDER; So you don’t feel like leaving the house. Do it anyway. You would rather sleep? Get up! Fight…fight…fight! Just because I said ACCEPT IT in #1 does not mean surrender to it. Do one thing today that you don’t feel like doing. #HowIFightDepression

7. BREATHE; When you feel the first signs of anxiety, stop, close your eyes (unless u r driving) and listen to your breath. Nothing else. You need to put yourself in the present. Anxiety is worry about the future or past. Be in the present for a bit… #HowIFightDepression

…if you get distracted while listening to your breath here is a great breathing technique called “box breathing”. Close your eyes, slowly breathe in for 8 seconds, hold it for 8 seconds and then slowly breathe out for 8 seconds. Repeat. #HowIFightDepression

8. SUPPORT THEM-NO MATTER WHAT; For family & friends close to someone with depression, even tho you feel like they’re always sad & what’s the use cuz no matter what u say or do has no effect,stick with them! U make a difference just being there,not giving up #HowIFightDepression

#HowIFightDepression I was diagnosed back with it back in 2003.I think it’s important to have a creative outlet to channel it out.I like to write music,poetry and short stories.Also gaming helps a lot to escape and helped me a lot when I was at school and used to get bullied.
