Be thankful for the good things in your life
Depression is sometimes caused by a collection of negative thoughts. Always assess your life and see the good things you have. As you work on the shattered bits, be thankful for the good things you have. Remember that no situation is permanent, things will change with time.
Socialize
Many people isolate themselves when depressed. This could led one into falling in severe depression as they aren’t sharing their problems. Socialising is one of the key factors to fighting depression. It helps you share what’s bothering you with others hence finding solutions. You could also find people going through the same experience hence coming up with collective solutions.
Its always advisable to have someone you can confide in in case of a challenge.
Do something you enjoy
