I really don't think that there is A way to pray,About Depression,Or atleast not A way that I know of.. And sometimes you will not even know that you are falling back into A depression stage,Again...But then sometimes you do,Because of some symptoms you will get,Like crankiness,Not caring,Wanting to just be alone,Having pains,In different muscles,Not being able to focus on certain things... And things like that..If you don't know you're falling back into depression,Then there is really nothing you can do,Until you know that you are,but if you know you are,Then you could try taking different herbs,and maybe changing you're eating habits,and trying to do some excercise,Or if the depression is worse than being cured with just those things...Then you may want to try to get some kind of help from someone ,and try some medication,depending upon what you're symptoms are,I hope that helps.

I beleive the things you say. People are just that way. But I think the good ones, and by good I mean moral, really do keep your issues private. They have nothing to gain and everything to lose, by 'runnin' their mouths'. And most of them do have your safety at heart. Thank you for responding. p.s. We all have to trust somebody sometime.

I agree.. I would also give alternative therapies a look at too after you have been diagnosed.. Many herbal, and natural remedies are often overlooked, and some none threatening.. Like Eating Alot of turkey increases seritonin production.

When one is in depression, one will not stop eating, drinking water, and all other routines. Similarly, during depression or during happy days, one should add to the list the following to the routine and at any cost these things should not be deleted from the list:
1. Meditation for 15 to 20 minutes
2. Exerticse for 1 hour (either swimming/walking/static cycling)
3. Reading books that inspire (particularly when one is going in to depression)
4. Talking to good friends who can cheer up
Many a times I also go into depression, but I fight against it by keep on doing some work or the other just to remove the thoughts of depression from my mind.
Many a times I listen to the music just to ignore the signals from my mind. After sometime, things will be alright. Anti-depressants should be avoided in the initial stages. It can be taken only when it becomes uncontrollable.

This is a serious thing. What I do when I feel depressed is start something I really like to do. Or some work that got eternally postponed like cleaning the cupboard, sewing, putting up a paper cuttin album of wanted articles. Or simply cook, cook and cook.

Women are more prone to depression than men. I've had bouts of lows due to depression and it's not something which you can just switch off. I must say it's been manageable so far.
I try to tell myself that things will be fine, when I look back at it tomorrow I'll have a good laugh. Talking about laughing, I tend to laught a lot even at silly things so maybe that is another way to cope with depression. For a more severe bout of depression, you must seek medical attention or talk to those befrienders. It really helps.

I know this topic is a couple of months old but I want to respond anyway. When I found myself showing signs of sinking back into depression, I started journaling about good things in my life and I also wrote about the things that were bothering me and getting me down. I think journaling is really important, especially if you have nobody to talk to that you trust. It helped me a lot and I examined the things that were making me angry deep down in my soul and started working on getting them out by writing about it.
