Dealing with Depression: Seeking Advice

That is such a difficult question to answer because we re all such unique individuals and it feels hard to say a one-size fits all type of solution for coping with depression. Personally, I utilized therapy and psychotropic medication as my main support systems for dealing with depression. They have both been extremely helpful in me feeling better. Feel free to dm me if you'd like to talk more about this with me!

It depends on what the depression is trying to do to me. But it does help to acknowlege that while the emotions are valid, the thoughts behind them probably aren't. My depression likes to generate excuses for why I'm feeling the way I am, and most aren't real.
