Well, it seems you have taken the first step - you have posed this question to a safe group of people who would like to help if possible. Good job! Start there. Talk with people here. Find someone you like, trust, feel safe with... and talk... about anything. Amazing what connecting with others who care can do for us.

Allow people to support you, whether this is a therapist, family members, or friends. Practice self-care: eat well, get enough (but not too much) sleep, get outside, work hard, take time to play, and try to find things that lift your spirits. Don't be afraid of seeking medication - for some people, this can make all the difference in the world. Remember, depression is never a sign of weakness.

The best thing you can do is not panic and not overthink, catch yourself when you're thinking negatively and try to treat yourself kindly.

If you're feeling depressed there are many things to do, think about why you might be feeling this way and of course I urge you to talk to someone you trust (an adult or even a friend) about how you're feeling so you have the support you need, and then go from there to get more help.

You can contact one of the many services available for people suffering with depression or of course visit your GP. Support the person in obtaining help and if necessary allow they to discuss with you their issues.

All forms of depression are serious if they affect your ability to function. Careful attention to determining the source of inner conflict, strained emotions, and behavioral changes is critical for addressing the development of depression and highlighting treatment options. Key suggestions for offsetting depression include; exercising to work off tension, meditating to clear the mental impurities of the day, changing the routine aspects of your life, developing a support system, and finding a healthy way to release pent up emotions. If these initial steps do not provide relief from the pain, other options are available. Consider speaking with a friend, partner, minister, professional counselor, or psychiatrist to canvass a different perspective. In addition to therapy options, there are medicinal treatments that target depression with noted effectiveness. If you need assistance in managing depression, you may want to consult with a professional counselor in your geographical area. Students at the University of Florida can contact the CWC. See the introductory web page for how to initiate services at the center.

Most importantly, seek help. Depression is not something that you can combat on your own, staying silent will only be detrimental to your own health. If you don't think that you can ask for help, start small, tell friends and family. Other people can definitely give you a new perspective on your situation, and can help you recognise behaviours that may be harmful. You don't deserve to go through this alone, building a support network is something that can definitely help you :)
