I just like to think about it, I listen to music and go over everything That`s happened to me. But sometimes, it gets to the point where I start to think about doing things that might hurt myself or other peoples. In that case, I usually just surround myself with people and get my mind off of it. Music really helps though, if you don't want to talk about it.

Do something fun that takes your mind off it. That's what i do or try to do

Depression has been a huge issue for me. I'm currently 18 and have been struggling since I turned 15. I'm not sure about other people, but I tend to go into "gray phases" when I stop caring about things and become suicidal. Talking to a councilor helps me, but I'm also on medication. When I was first diagnosed it didn't come in phases. It wasn't until about 2 years later that I started experiencing that. I had been on a stable 40mg of Fluoxitine (Prosac), but about a month ago I started taking prescription Lamictal and Abilify as stabilizers. I think it's helped some, but I can't be sure so soon. I also tried Welbutrin, but immediately had negative side effects and (due to a gray phase and the ability of the pills) was going to overdose, but instead just took 5x my prescribed dose. Having someone there for you makes a big difference. If my younger sister hadn't been the one to get my pills for me and ask if they would hurt me, I might not be here. Hopefully this helped you some. :)

Well i always try to talk it out with somebody. this always helps. if i dont feel like talking i try to solve it with any small things that make you happy. like.
sleep. play something. cook your favourite dish. Go out.
Whatever i do i always search for good company. i mean, i want somebody who i trust and love around me. try to distract yourself. try to find anything in the next weeks you look forward to. so the time goes by faster. in any case: i always avoid to be alone. if i feel sad and i'm alone, it wont get better. just do anything. go out.
ah, and music, of course.
thats the way i deal with being depressed :D

exercise! Exercise is natural way to fight depression. It helps keep the chemicals balanced. Exercise first. Then if it doesn't seem to help you may need see a doctor. Mild depression can easily be managed with exercise.

I usually work on a project or draw/paint something.

I eat my favorite food while listening to loud music or watching comedic animes. When I'm seriously overly depressed, I cry aloud to help me externalize and then I do the things I said before to get my good mood back.

But I think the things you do in this type of situation depend on the person you are. I think you should just try to do the things you like the most and keep your mind busy with them till your mood gets better.
