While I'm feeling depressed I would listen to up beating music and I tend to draw or read a book. I usually try my best to get over it

listen to music, relax, listen to one of my many audio books, EAT CHOCOLATE!

I surf the Internet more than usual, and then think my way out of it.

I just listen to music or take a nap. Very swift.

I search on the internet for other people who might understand me. So... I found this old thread an wake it up.

It is pretty hard to deal with depression. Not alone the times you cry and cry and cry, also, in my case, the listlessness. When I am really depressed, nothing is working. Call a friend, read a book even watching favourite shows or films isn't helping. So I end up doing nothing and sleep. But that is not satisfying - for me.
A few years ago I started writing. Then I joined animexx and even wrote fanfiction. But in the end it didn't work out because I got perfectionistic and writing lost it's pleasure.
Unfortunately I tend to eat to much when I am depressed. Now I am overweight - and that is depressing me further. Vicious cycle.

I am on medication and next week begins my rehab. Who knows what will happen after that? But I am stubborn. And this is helping because I fail to see the point in capitulating.

What really helped me whenever I felt depressed was doing a lot of stuff. Keeping busy with your hobbies or school or whatever can be really helpful, because if you don't have a lot of free time then you won't think about your depression too much and you won't have a lot of time for your sad thoughts.
Also, sleep is a nice way to avoid feeling like shit but ofc it's temporary... You can't really sleep forever so the first option is a bit better I guess.

I don't, and it's crushing me to death!

Aha, ahahahaha. hahahahahahaha

Currently dealing with a steady level 8/10 depression, been dealing with this depression for over 2 years now, and it's been fairly stable at this level for a little over half a year.

I try to go along with life as good as I can, take my time with tasks, and don't plane too much in a day/week.

In the end it's just a case of sitting it out and trying not to let it win.

It's a battle I am planning to be victorious in. :}
