How do you climb out of that deep hole when you are at the bottom of your depression?

Connect with someone who makes you laugh. Sometimes doing the very thing you feel least like doing is exactly what needs to be done

You have to find a reason to want to not be depressed anymore. Find something that you would live for and LIVE FOR IT! =)

You find the tiniest thing that makes you happy and gives you pleasure, and you hold on to it, and let it be a ladder to other little things that make you happy.

Be around people! Especially people who can lift your spirits or you can confide in. Getting out in the world is healthy do you don't get so lost in your spiral. Cinfide In others. They might not have experience wit what you're goingbthrough but they still care about you very much! Also this can let off steam or help you feel less scared and alone. Surround yourself with things that make you happier. Open your shades to let in sunlight, get out in nature, excersice, read self help or encouraging or happy books. Tell yourself "you can do this!" Because YOU CAN! I firmly believe that, having been there myself. You could consult with your doctor to see if you want to take any medical steps that could help your condition. I have a few friends who have benefitted greatly from anti depressant medications. Lastly, do everything you can to get on a regular sleep schedule. 8+ hours a night can do wonders for your health. Don't seclude yourself to your thoughts alone, get out, even to the grocery store and converse with the clerk. :) ☀️☀️☀️

Take it one step at a time. It helps to remember that there is a bright and beautiful world for you after you step out from the hole. Aim to reach there one day by taking a step at a time.

Depression is something that millions of people around the globe experience each day, so first off, you can know that you are not alone.

You remember that even though things seem hard now, the will always improve. Bad times don't last forever.

I cry.. Sob.. share. And most importantly listen to myself.. i automatically start finding answers to my own question as i dig deep and surf through the experiences ive faced or seen in life so far

Well for one just let go of everything and start over. Start loving and appreciating the small things in life, things like the episode of your fave tv show, a book, and find joy and partake in that.

Depending on how I'm feeling.. I try to accomplish something. I always feel somewhat better when I do. No matter how small the task may seem, it is a victory for me to know the day has not gone by without getting at least one project done, If I am so overwhelmed, I might rest first and after that, I usually start coming around. It is rare I rest rather than try to climb out. I also only surround myself with love ... self care in that respect. take care of me first. Maybe turn off the TV, listen to music while I do my tasks and spend time with my animals that love me. Nurture, nurture, nurture
