Exercise/workout. Best cure for depression. Ever since I started working out (a year ago), I found myself feeling less and less blue. I also practice piano and guitar when I feel down.

Drink beer.

I normally don't let things get me down. Just dont tred on things or else you will always feel bad.

I know, saying "just stop feeling bad" isnt what you want to hear, but it is the only way to feel better. You have to just stop, think about positive things, dont let stuff bug your life up and continue down the road of life.

And drink beer.

Music, games, watch movies. In other words, do something that will distract you.

Exercise is fantastic, walking, upbeat music, hanging out with friends by doing something that preoccupies my mind, reading, talking to yourself outloud helps you sort your thoughts and think logically

Forgot to say what I do.

I watch films. I can get into a film really easily which distracts me from feeling sad.

Drinking will just compound the sadness/feelings. SOme people can drink and feel better but IMO its a bad cover up.

Agreed. Drugs in general are a terrible solution to depression that only serve as a temporary mask to your problems. In fact I think the haziness that follows drug use makes the problems even worse since it requires a clear-heard to solve said problems

Man i don't know drinking really does lighten you up. I think being tipsy is the perfect state of being, not too hammered, not too sober. Man i wish i could be in that state all the time.

And i'm in no way a drinker.

The only thing that stresses my out is girls/relationships. Every other problem I can easily rationalize away. I start doubling my regular workouts whenever that stress comes, and it always eases my mind. And puts me back into peek physical condition which is even better. Over the summer I started a complicated relationship and lets just say I dropped 10 pounds and put on muscle.

Music, video games, caffeine (I think the warmth helps too, but it makes me feel a bit better), sleep, other things.

I've been doing a lot of that because I **** hate almost everything I chose to do this fall :C

Grow a temporary hatred for what I'm depressed over and then shrug and move on. Doesn't work with people though (sprained my wrist throwing a guy over a chair).

Yeah i quite like blood too. Not in a cut myself kinda way but it fascinates me. The feel, the taste, the heat, the smell. Its weirdly cool. I like getting a nosebleed. But i'm a strange person.

i'm going to agree with this, maybe its the rush of hormones or the pumped feeling you get but working out is great, especially back day, nothing like squeezing hard as you pull down the lat machine while jimmy barnes plays over the speakers.
