2. Exercise is the easiest and least expensive cure for depression.

3. The origin of depression can be situational.

4. People don't choose to be depressed, but they do make a choice about how to deal with it.

5. Depression is experienced as anxiety 65% of the time.

You can add two important things to that list! -pets are great at fighting off depression -jogging or biking is better mood lifter than chocolate laugh

Personally I dislike pets but I know it helps alot of people that do like them! Yesss, stuffing yourself with choclate is never a good idea. P.S I dont know how to change my post sorry!! But thank you for your two very important suggestions that I missed out 😊

I have another. Vitamin D3 is necessary for battling Seasonal Affective Disorder and other forms of depression. Can only get it from the right foods (see labels), suppliments or the sun unobstructed by window glass or clouds at 80 to 45 degrees from the ground for 15 min on exposed skin (longer if you're wearing sunblock or have a tan).

I can add a very important : Support. If someone is depressed & people around them show support, this will have a great effect on them to move forward.
