for me I'd listened to disco/dance music and after a while I'd started to dance and become happy again

Any leisure activity, particularly those involving exercise, are good for depression. Congratulations. I've found that reading this book:

and/or visiting this website:

can be a big help, too.

I listen to music, too. Justin Timberlake's song (from his 1st album), "Take it from Here" just does the trick every time. I call my Mother, the nicest lady in the world. I ask people to pray for me. I drink orange juice or eat an orange. I go around the block to the lake ~ always beautiful.

go for a walk
watch cartoons or a funny movie
blow bubbles
warm bubble bath
color
sing
throw rocks in a pond
exercise
do something nice for someone else
buy fresh flowers
call an old friend
hand out with a pet, if you don't have one you can go to the pound or shelter and just visit with a homeless one.
just something that makes you stop thinking about how bad you feel.

I would go to my room and listen to music or go jogging or walk to the beach with the dogs. Anything just to get my mind of the thing that made me upset! You know concentrate on something els. It helps for a while!!!
