Answer 6

I would suggest doing something that will make you laugh, if you can go see your friends do that and dont talk to them about your problems as that is just bringing them into the arena with your friends and the reason you are with them is to forget your problems, so talk about useless things and just have fun, maybe even go to the cinema or go a walk with a friend, I find that always helps :) There will be light at the end of the tunnel!!!!

Answer 7

watch a movie, go for a walk

A trigger, eh? You really know about depression. Well, don't dwell on it just sing a song. Here's one.

'With my finger on the trigger

and my foot in a bucket

I give a little snigger and

I shout out

'Never mind the bills are due

or if Santa isn't true

and I wanna use the loo

blues'

Think of a tune for it and smile for Gawd's sake.

find a job around the house and do it; something physical and once started has to be finished.

Answer 15

go out running. it clears ur mind and makes u feel great. i didnt believe it n always just stayed in and wondered about the house, but running really is good. or even just a walk.  

Answer 16

Get out and do something for yourself.  Quit thinking about your problems and think of others that may be worse off than you.  Your situation could be worse but it will get better.  If you know the Lord give all your troubles to Him and He will give you the peace that passes all understanding.

Answer 17

The best way? Talk to someone you are most comfortable of. If its me, I will just straight call my Mom.  

Answer 18

I love to paint, but beating the blues is very hard, I say that only happens in time -  

Answer 19

Yeah I get like that, I find getting out in the countryside helps a lot, greenery, open skies, puts it all in perspective somehow, listening to the birds sing and the leaves rustling knowing mother nature is ticking away, and always will be gives you a sense of peace, even a nice park or municipal garden would do, just get out there!

Answer 20

Well if READING a good novel doesn't help or socializing with friends doesn't seem to cheer you up. You may need to consult a doctor.

Don't listen to the IDIOTS who tell you to USE DRUGS they probably would love to see you self destruct.
