Feeling low & emotionally drained

What are best things to combat depression? Personally I go for a walk, eat some veges, go look at something pretty or visit some art where I am allowed to be morbid

Hummm chocolate - does that make u fat so u have to go to the gym?> Cancels itself out really

I like the thigh master

Gardening or swimming tends to work beside working out which sb got to already.

Any of you like the ocean?

never been to one,lived in LA but never got around to it.Work related move basically🙂

NEVER BEEN TO THE BEACH!!! OMG Tiamat! your new mission in life - get urself to one ASAP!
Yeah - Surfing is the most therapeutic thing u can do! Ur more scared of dying than worrying about depression 🙂 Couldn't live without the beach nearby! Plus Kell Slater is a hottie xxx Oh & for u boys Gilmore (Aussie girl) Very cute

Sb why only up to ur knees?

running along the beach is good exercise.. barefoot in the sand.. nothin like it

lol,i've been to beaches just not along an ocean.I live on lake erie though so yeah,im surrounded by water here in ohio now.

When I'm feeling low, I keep myself busy. I try not to think about what's keeping me down. I throw myself into my work/ studies, do aerobics like mad, and talk to many friends.

Seams to be the standard thing to do ..... Any strage things people do?

im guessing their leos- their open about their bathroom habits

but you gotta admit nothing makes a person(men, women, the rest) happier than a good s h i t 🙂

Nooo - Cappy, Aqua, Cancer & Aries are the repeat offenders! Illmatic how did u come up with ur name?

Night night - No rat bag Mischief for u

Well I went on bashing Libras. Made my day. The topic has been deleted but it's ok. I've even receved intimidating messages from people around tha I don't ever saw and hear. I must be in very big demand person so everyone flock to me.

What a very funny movie. Listen to some soothing music and take a scented bath.

Haffo, you are crazy.

See? Even Virgo's started to flock to me.

"Illmatic how did u come up with ur name?"

A BIG HUG!

Whatever has you bogged down, guess what the world does not stop. Keep living and don't let it pass you by.

AMEN!

Course it keeps spinning! When u are in that moment of depression it can seam to take hold of you & you can't see the beautiful life around you - that?s probably why people go for walks or do some exercise or go somewhere pretty - to remind themselves of what they have. Easy enough to say 'Keep living and don't let it pass you by' but really hard to do! Thats why people jump off bridges 🙂 they can't get past it because they can't see past it - it consumes you

Very cool Illmatic

Soz ldy if u thought I was sad - didn't mean to give that impression. I have been quite interested in the psychology of depression so I thought I would ask how people generally deal with it. Unfortunately I didn't get any educated answers on that one - Just take a big dump - Hummm - Lovely

Just to prove it

Sorry to hear u lost your job ldy!! BTW i totally agree with you on the below

1 - Change your situation.
2 - Change your attittude about the situation.

If you can't change your situation then change your attitude to your situation - Generally if you think positively you can be happy in most circumstances.
Depression comes in different forms - It can be genetic & this is an illness where allot of times the victim is unaware when they are spiralling into it & therefore cannot stop themselves or take restorative action when it has gone to far. Most people will take action (as per comments on this thread) to combat depression but people with chronic depression know they are sad but don't know why and cannot correct it on there own. I would be really interested to hear some opinions on this.

"I know exactly what you mean and sometimes there is nothing more that you can do than take prescribed meds for the depression. My sister is bipolar and she is a wreck without the meds. I think for many of us we can combat it with positive mind set and excercise."

did she ever try hypnosis?
it worked for my chronic procrastination

Araahahah Illmatic

As a pisces SEX always helps me. They say old D**k will give you a headache every now and then, but new D**k always clears your mind!! 😉

"Araahahah Illmatic"

hello pisces
how do you do?

What makes you depressed is exactly what people try to put on you. Just be yourself, don't listen to people "rules" follow your own rules even thought you seem cannot explain them how they are working. That is the best way to relive your depression. Rememer, fight for who you are.

'...As a pisces SEX always helps me...'

totally agree.. sex is da 1 of da greatest anti-depressantz.. n not only that...

sexercise is also gr8 in combatin' stress 🙂

wow theres alot of people helping one another with their depression problems
