Drugs and medicines will not help you get through depression
Rather it is your courage,willpower and effort which will help you overcome depression
When going through depression..try and divert your mind from the thought that is depressing you
Engage your mind in some sort of an activity or the other
Sometimes a change of environment helps..travel to some other place
Offer a prayer everyday
Write down what you feel..don't keep it imprisoned within you
Talk to your close friends and family
Talk to people who you think will understand you
Try and accept the reality and move on
I know it's all easier said than done
But that's the only way
I have gone through it many times at various stages of my life
And i know it's not easy
But if you want to defeat depression..you have to conquer yourself first
Remember..no one will be able to help you unless and until you're ready to help yourself
