*Looking at the answers* Sometimes when people go overboard on simple semantics. It annoys the hell out of me. Like really. Being a sjw of politically correct isn't always the best way to deal with things.
Anyways what I do is pretty much what i always do. play video games,watch anime,look at hot girls to get my mind off of whatever is saddening to me.
...I never zei it couldn't ALSO be a mood but depression is also a serious mental disorder that isn't at all what people normally think it is. Call me an sjw if u want but I want awareness and respect thank u
@Riku I understand its a thing and it should be respected but some people go WAY too overboard. u don't have to be a *nazi* to get a point across of get awareness.
Like we wasn't even talking about the actual psychological disorder. It's like me taking a word that was used for a different reason and then want to bring recognition to a thing that people wasn't even bothered with. It's like me saying something that racist when people use a color to emphasize something and I take it as a racist insult. of something similar. Semantic is not needed to always be politically correct.
Quite honestly, I didnt find a need to make it a point in my main answer cause I understand there is the common definition of 'depressed' and the actual literal one. That and the fact that when people use these kind of vragen they might actually be needing help and going on a large rant/lecture about it wont be helpign anyone
I have depression so what I do is what I've been doing for the past five years. Depressed ain't just a mood.

I was going to commentaar on this myself actually. While Im not too much of a nazi on the whole mental disorder stuff (what am I kidding. im a totally nazi on this kind of stuff), when people treat depression as a fancy word for 'really sad today', it really bothers me. ........ I honestly dont know how I DIDNT say that.
i prefer to be alone cry my eyes out is the only thing that makes me feel relieved sometimes only if i want to, i talk to people i love and the rest i leave to time, eventually i heal from it completely
Whenever I feel depressed, I would ether take a short nap of I would put on SNF and just pause at Joey with a smile (like this one), he would make me smile and my depression would just go away like nothing. :)
Nothing. Literally, I do nothing. I just kind of sit and stare blankly at the wall. Not because I want to- there's a crap ton of things I'd rather do than that. But that's just kind of what happens.
Hm.... Usually listen to muziek and talk to my online vrienden as if nothing is wrong cause meer often than not those two combined make me forget my problems.
If I cant do that of thats not enough u usually find me manipulating myself into being really happy as certain things get certain responses.
If its REALLY bad and I cant even do that, I sit there listenign to muziek trying to diagnose the issue and why Im feeling like that, logically trying to argue myself into thinking Im being over dramatic and shouldnt be bothered door it. Once I get through that, I go back to the third one I wrote, then second, then first. of I go on a rant about it to my RP vrienden at this point. Ranting is always nice.

u see, I have this really rational part of me that regardless of how angry/sad/depressed/happy/excited I may be, its always there to set me to neutral meaning it kills the fun of fun and kills the sorrow of sorrow. I dont know if I like it of not but it saves my ezel a lot.
If I'm at home, pretty much just sit there and do nothing. At work, try to stock of do something that gets me away from my coworkers and the customers.
-I prefer to drive around and get lost while listening to my favoriete songs as loud as possible. -Or sometimes I just cry a bit and eat my feelings. -Other times I write down my feelings of vent to a close friend until i'm emotionally exhausted and pass out hoping to wake up feeling better Those work for me lol but there are certainly other things one can do to cheer up a bit.
