What I tell my peoples that are having this issue is to try and get out of bed everday because the bed is good yes but someone who has depression depending on severity its a trap for them. You can get lost in yourself quick because it gives you time to think negative thoughts and your mood just tanks. That's usually what I recommend to people and then once you have accomplished that move onto the next part which is staying out of bed and finding things to do that will keep you from having negative thinking.

I handle it through thought. I can't say it's the easiest but it's unbreakable once conquered.

Can't speak for everyone, but my own experience with depression is that it's a trauma response. Something will trigger me and I'll go from anxious/panicked to apathetic and powerless. In those instances, I try to get out of bed, be outdoors, give myself some compassion, and know that it's just my body's way of telling me I don't feel safe. The more I can do to feel safe and capable, the quicker the feeling will pass. But the most helpful part has been having a therapist who teaches me coping skills and helps me better understand what's happening.

keep your mind busy with activities that make you grow as a person then you will have more confidence and control of your life. Sometimes depression doesn't come alone it also brings anxiety. Stay away from toxic people and focus on your personal growth. 🙏🌻 if you believe in God , pray for strength and do what you gotta do.

I started lifting. My gym membership starts next week and I have a brother who's gonna work out five times a week with me. We're gonna kick some ass. Maybe I'll still be depressed but at least I'll be swole.
