What do you do when you feel depressed?

[paints]

In the winter months, when I start feeling down and it's too cold to be outside, I load up on D3, the sunshine vitamin.

The rest of the year, I try to go outside and soak up some natural sunshine.

If that doesn't work, I find something to make me laugh.
Robin Williams usually does it.

I pretty much just stay in my bedroom and watch tv and I sleep a lot.  I lost my job and that just made my feelings worse everyone says I have depression but I never been diagnosed with it.  Maybe I am I have not done much since I lost my job and I have not went out to look for another one either.  I don't have insurance and with the new law I don't know how I am going to get insurance either.

I have to listen to upbeat music and try to get myself going again. I also tend to go for walks, clear my head and then write everything down in a journal.

Sadly, when I'm depressed I turn to junk food. I need to start talking my problems out instead of food because it's increasing my waistline...

I agree that natural sunshine is a pick me upper.  I tend to sleep when I'm going through something but I don't mind that because my body could use the Z's plus it's better than eating my worries, which I'm known to do.  I also think green veggies are a natural pick me upper, so I'm going to get some broccoli when I go to the grocery store today.  I have sweet peas and green beas but I think broccoli is a super food.

I will go outside and look at the sky and consider the universe and how small I am in the grand scheme of things. Then I remember what a good friend told me years ago: "You won't know the difference a million years from now."

Thats a hard one. Getting around people even though you really dont want to be around anyone ends up really changing my mood.

I usually take my meds that my Doctor has prescribed for me for depression and do my best to feel better about me and what is causing the depression.  Not always easy.
