I suffered from depression once and my cousin Luis helped me through it. He saw me crying to much and not cleaning my house and got angry with me and grabbed me by my arm and told get dressed we are going out to a club you can't be crying all day and night and not taking care of your baby I will find a babysitter for you. I went out several times with him and my other friends and that seemed to help. So stay active have fun and enjoy life and if all else fails go see a specialist.

The advice already given is very good and should be followed, but if your reasons for being depressed is because you are not where you expected to be in life or you messed things up or wasted time - like mine are - these are not enough to cut it and even if those aret the reasons it is still good advice. Make goals for yourself and work towards them, every time you get a step closer or come up with a new goal which means new hope you will feel boosted and great. Writing what bothers you when you are upset along with other creative outlets are also important to do because everyone needs an outlet, if you dont have one things just build up. I suggest opening a document or taking a note pad and just writing whatever comes to your head even if it is just what you ate this morning or how stupid you feel doing this and just let your thoughts flow. Free writing is an amazing therapy! Also every morning even if you are not going to leave your house dress yourself nicely and make yourself up, and that includes sexy undergarments because if someone looks good and they know they look good it is hard to feel bad about yourself at least in that aspect. Exercise because that boosts endorphins which help you feel happy. Volunteer because when you are helping someone else and focused on someone else you will forget how you feel about yourself and on top of that you will be giving back which will give you a good reason to feel good about yourself and it helps put your blessings and life in general in perspective. Keep yourself busy because you will feel like you are doing something with your life and yourself and you will feel good for that and be too busy to think about what makes you feel bad. Try reorganizing and throwing things out and/or changing something for the better in your life - even if it is just a hair cut, that helps LOTS of people. Sit down and write a list of your blessings, and if you can not think of any write every part of yourself that is health, like being able to see and walk and whatever else, then think of your blessings every day with out the list and try to think of something new to be happy and grateful for every day. And if you are a religious person thank G-d every morning and keep in mind what you exactly you are thankful for and pray for strength every night - the AA and NA prayer for strength is very nice try that. Also try your best to do things on a schedule (like sleeping and eating and everything else) and eat healthy, that also helps and gives you security in life and makes you feel like you have power over something. If you do all this you are sure to get better. If you mess up... well no worries and dont feel bad just try again and try to do it for a little longer this time, and do this over and over till you are set. Oh and dont try to take on too much at once... start with one or two things and then add on something every so often so you dont become overwhelmed. This all really works! Good luck!

Being depressed affects a lot of people in our society. if you find that it is a serious problem you should probably seek professional help. On a daily basis we all encounter things that will make us sad and unhappy. When I begin to feel sad or unhappy I try to focus on all the good things that have happened in my life or during that day. You need to find a way of seeing the glass half full instead of half empty. It's your trying to have a positive attitude when your day is at it's worst. Exercise is very important and keeping your self busing with work and other activities. Look for support groups in your city or community, where individuals such as yourself help each other deal with the sadness in their lives. Stay active and put your energies of being sad into helping others, because when you're helping someone else you begin to forget about your own worries and it also helps toput your worries into prospective. You have the power to change how you feel, just believe in yourself.
