Guys, in one way or another you have been into depression, so wanna ask what you've done to cope and get back on track? I currently lost my job and am a breadwinner in the family with a mom to support and nephews who are in school but I got no job to support them anymore, this is the reason of my depression cus I still haven't find a new one.

Sometimes to get over depression, you have to force yourself to become involved with other people. This may not get rid of the problems, but you can at least get a break from thinking about them. Often this will let you come back with a clear head and be ready to take on your own problems with a fresh set of solutions and possibilities.

I agree with you, it's your own will that can help you move on and fight the depression. It's an evil emotion that distracts you from facing the reality.
