I used to drown my sorrows, but my sorrows were very good swimmers. I now work out when I'm feeling blue.

I Chant Hare Krishna The Maha Mantra - Maha means Great and Man means mind and tra means deliver. The great mantra for deliverance. It controls the mind. We have to be gate keepers of our mind and not let anything in that is negative.
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. Just say it loud enough to hear each syllable clearly. If you can get or make beads of 108 and chant one whole mantra per bead it helps concentration for more info go to http://www.stephen-knapp.com Get the book Universal Path to Enlightenment There is much help there for the mind and soul.

I start thinking about people less fortunate than me, like parents whose children are dying from a horrible disease or visiting a teenager in the hospital on life support after a car accident, or my favorite bad mood buster is thinking about my friend who is 40, pregnant and single - I always feel better then.

I think about all those unlucky people in the world, people who are very poor, or had accidents which ruined their lives just to remind myself how lucky I'm.
and I listen to my favorite sons and sing while driving, it usually makes me feel much better, and the most important thing is I eat chocolate (although I regret it later)

and when i feel depressed and going to my best friends house i hold off the crying and let it all out when me and her are hanging out in the graveyard it really helps just to talk to a friend

the first thing I do is buy Ben and Jerry's ice cream, then I put on the 'tv, go to bed, eat my ice cream and go to sleep. Somehow this ritual takes me to the level where I can start chipping away at what depresses me.

Either busy myself with other activities, walk the dog or work on my eBay store, talk to a friend sometimes, or just cry...crying actually is effective!! It will make you feel better, but I try not to resort to that too often...it's hard on your makeup and makes your eyes,nose and face look really crappy!

When I got depressed, I threw myself at school. I know it's hard, but it keep you from think about doing other things, specifically BAD things. Good luck, I know you can do it!

I tell myself that the feeling is not going to last, and I spend all my free time with my friends. I just stick it out and keep good company until it passes.
