There are lot of ways to combat depression. One of them is by having a good conversation with friends. Start calling up your friends and start some conversation with them. Reading good books particularly devotional and inspirational books will help a lot. You may try watching some good television programs or listening to good music. On top of everything the best cure for depression is prayer or conversation with God. God is laways just a prayer away. Spend some time with Him.

Hi mastinet, what can I write? I get angry with shrewdness of other people. And frustrate when they deliberately try to avoid understanding what is said as it works to their advantage. Anxious - not really. More correctly not always. If we forget to fill the tank while going out, then I do have moments wondering will there be a petrol bunk on the way, with some petrol. Nowadays quite a few of them dont have any. ha ha. But depression??? Do u think a person like me will know a mental state like that? :-) No ways. My way of beating blues are - eating nice pastries, ice creams, samosas, pakoras. ha ha. Well, I do love eating. So I do what I like to take my mind off. And another thing - I love singing. My father being an angel that he is, he appreciates whatever I sing, even though I know my singing is horrible. He is always there to say - no it didnt sound that bad. Which may be because he is getting too old. Let me have his ears checked. he he. :-)

hi,mastinet,I think the symptoms of depression is one want to do nothing and nothing can attract him.the best therpy I think is to make more frinds and chat with them or go out for trip etc.then one can forget the unhappy thing,and go out from the anxiety and depression.

if you are in a depression..it's better for you to share your problem with your family or bestfriend. it may help although they didnt give you a solution. if you think thats not enough..just go to the doctor and listen his/her advice. by the way, im on depression too and i keep on writing journal of my life. on my blog. and it's help me so much as the visitor always give me advice and spirit :D
