well- this ought to be interesting.

I overcame depression by taking up other hobbies to by my spare time
so instead of moping around I joined some groups and stuff and made friends and now I dont feel so depressed anymore

How I got out of depression is because I realized I became a shell of my former shell, so I worked on my insides a bit and now I'm not depressed anymore. That happened a year ago, for that to happen, it takes a lot of willpower though, let me tell you that.

1. Keep a Journal
2. Get support online or with friends or family
3. Get a hobby
4. Don't neglect your basic needs
5. Sunlight go for walks (15 mins)
6. Think positive
7. Forgive people
8. Exercise
9. Set future goals
10. Look for motivation
11. Force yourself to smile and listen to positive music

Realize that you aren't alone.
