Top 10 Best Things to Do to Help Deal with Depression

Sometimes I start to feel really unhappy, but I always try to overcome it. It doesn't always work, but as long as I try, I feel like I'll be okay.

If you give up, it wins

It's not that easy.

"Professional help" is not a school guidance counselor or psychologist. To actively get depression treated, you should go to an actual neurologist that can provide a medication which will help you control it and seek happiness.

Professional Help has never helped me.

This is true. You're not alone. You're never alone. I always feel alone, but I realize that so many others are going through the same hardships that I go through every day. I know that there are people who care about me, even when I feel unloved. So please, don't commit suicide, even if you feel rejected, because there are people who care about you and love you.

Damn it. damn it, man! I am all alone in this world. There's literally nobody on my side considering that all of the peers and ''trusted people" I've met in my life can't help me at all without being fictitious for once.

You are not the only one feeling these things, everyone's through it

Easier said than done. Once you do it once, it feels like it's near impossible to stop. But you CAN stop. I believe in every single on of you beautiful people out there. Please, don't give up, and get help. Your life will be so much better.

Self harm does nothing, it is a temporary fix that just leads to more pain later

My depression is a gentleman. He taps me on the shoulder when I'm not occupied and says (in a British accent) "Oh, I see that you're not doing anything. Here, worry about everything and think horrible things to fill your time." Of course this is personification, but that's basically what happens. And it's not fun. You really should keep yourself occupied. Read a book, draw, let out your anger by shouting at dragons in Skyrim, anything really.

I struggled with depression, going to the gym helped me stay busy, when I wasn't at school, I was at the gym, because naturally it makes you feel good and helps relieve stress.

I constantly am doing something, just to keep the crushing emotions away.

People see me as so unemotional. I don't cry often in public. But the truth is, I cry myself to sleep every night.

I..I do this a lot

A woman I know once told me, "You're Not trapped in this moment forever. A lot of girls feel like they're trapped in an eternity of pain and depression, but they're not. You're just in one tiny blimp of the rest of your life. There's hope, so just hold on a little longer."

I often feel like no one loves me. But I know it's not true.

Yes, please do this

Although it depends because then it could make someone more depressed.

No! This is unhepful. Someone having worse lives doesn't make your situation better...
