The best ways to overcome depression is to keep your-self engage in different activities. · You can share your problems with close friends or parents. · Focus on meaningful, positive aspects of your life. · Pace yourself, modify your schedule, and set small, realistic goals. · Eat a proper, well-balanced diet. · You can start medication. · Reduce or eliminate the use of alcohol or drugs. · Establish a regular sleep pattern. Depression is a temporary difficulty, not a reflection of your whole life or self worth.
