There is no bona fide "stop being depressed" magical cure, but you can absolutely start your road to recovery by seeking help from a medical professional and having open honest conversations with those you truly trust. Its a long road but anyone can make it, it's just a matter of how far you're willing to climb.

Everyone is different when it comes to depression. I find that pushing myself to go out and do things, helps. Now I understand it is very hard when you are depressed to go out and do things. So you can also try to find an escape. I use reading, but like I said everyone is different.

Keep yourself busy with safe activities that you enjoy. (e.g listening to music, playing video games.) and talk to someone you trust.

By going out and having fun! Get up, do something with your life! Because staying within your own home is nonsense, when you have the entire world to explore, take your dog for a walk, take a bike ride. do SOMETHING!

Putting your mind off your situation and doing something you love. Surround yourself with positive people and if it gets too much, speak to someone you trust. :) Lastly, keep smiling!!

I do not think that there is a right or wrong answer for this, everyone has their own way of fighting depression. But I believe that focusing all of your energy on doing something that you really love helps a lot, whatever that thing might be. Also sorround yourself with good, positive people instead of people who bring you down. Last but not least, don't forget to put yourself first every once in a while!

There is no easy or quick way to treat depression, but the best ways are to either go to a therapist or to get medications (specifically antidepressants). Although these things cost a significant amount of money, they are your best bet to beat depression.
