EXERCISE REGULARLY 

Another great way in coping with depression is exercise. Regular exercise has been known to be a great stress reliever. Reduced stress will aid in conquering your depression. Some studies have shown that having a regular exercise routine can be as effective as medications for depression. They also increase your energy levels, decrease feelings of fatigue, and generally make you a healthier person.

Another thing studies have shown is that exercise can raise endorphins, increase neurotransmitter's in the brain, minimize stress, and relieve tension in your muscle. All those factors also decrease the effects of depression.  

At least 30 minutes a day three to five days a week minimum is a good start in creating an exercise plan. You don't have to go full blast right away, aim for consistency. Start out small such as a walk or go up some stairs. Swimming is also a great way to get exercise as it uses all the muscles in your body. If you feel you are up to it you can do some more strenuous physical activity such as sports or martial arts.  

Next on our tips to coping with depression is to adopt a healthy diet with lots of nutritious foods.  

Eating healthy foods can make you feel better and enhance your moods.  

Some great diet tips are: 

- Do not skip breakfast! It is the most important meal of the day and a good hearty healthy breakfast can start you out on the right foot.  

- Say no to processed foods. Stick with foods that are not processed such as pure meat, vegetables, fruits, rice, cheese, ECT... 

- Take a daily vitamin - We normally do not get all the vitamins we need from food along. A daily vitamin you can take in the morning with your breakfast can give you the necessary vitamins and minerals your food does not provide.  

- Drink lots of water. You want to stay hydrated all the time, drink lots of water and less junk like soda.  

Last but not least in tips to coping with depression is to eliminate negative thought patterns. 

When you are depressed the lens that you the view the world will tend to have a negative shade to it. Listening to motivational tapes and reading books on positive thinking can help you defeat those negative thought patterns.

Also try to spend time with more positive people, because the people we keep in our lives influence us and you want that influence to be positive when you are coping with depression. I can tell your from personal experience that making these types of lifestyle changes will greatly aid in recovering from depression.
