In general cases people get depression just because they think they are not enough to work better for their life and this happens just because the people around them are not valuing their ideas or explanations. Just avoid such types of people because no one has the right to judge you and everyone is unique and your ideas can be different from their thinking . Being confident over self opinion is the best way to avoid negativity. Continuing  ignorance makes you feel like you lost your value and it is a cause of depression. Please avoid such people.

2. Highlight your achievements instead of thinking about failures or losses -

Focusing on the failures is nothing more than a decrement of self esteem which can only waste your time and disturb your mind. Highlight your past achievements so that you might be confident in your personality and may not feel less than anybody. One of the biggest reasons for depression is low self esteem so please try to avoid it and focus on your real skills. Always remember that failure teaches more than success and there is no successful person who never faced failure. Just write down your achievements, decorate your awards in your room and start working for your skills.

3. Do what you enjoy the most - 

Doing what you love generates a hormone called "endorphins" which is also known as the happy hormone . It makes your mind calm and relaxed so that it can work well. It makes your mind think positively and work more actively. So just go back to your favourite hobbies even if your mind is stopping you to do it because depressed mind attracts negativity and you must fight it.

4. Start writing diary or journal and write what you feel exactly-

Writing makes you release all your sorrow on paper which helps your mind to be relaxed and calm. Usually depressed people do not share sorrows with anyone so it is necessary to write them down so that the mind can be burden free. Just write down all the experiences you feel in the whole day and what problems are there with your life. It would make you understand your skills as well as your weaknesses. It would help your mind to be light and prepare it to gain new things.

5. Do yoga and meditation -

Practicing yoga and meditation makes you positive, active and happy. It helps your mind to focus over necessary things and keeps away from negative thought. It would make your body healthy so that you would feel active the whole day and would do every work with concentration. It also increases confidence which is a very important step to overcome depression. Daily practice meditation for at least 10 minutes and do yoga for at least 45 minutes. Just start doing it and you will feel the magic of this remedy.

6. Work opposite to your negative thoughts -

Depressed mind attracts negativity and only command to do things which makes you more depressed. Just work opposite to your negative thoughts. You will feel it difficult to do something opposite to your mind but this is the only way to start doing positive things. Just practice it with your daily routine and slowly your mind would start accepting positive things and this is what we are searching for.

7. Eat what makes you feel good -

Eating what you love makes you happy as well as fulfils your cravings. Just eat whatever you love and you will start feeling happy for no reason and stop thinking negatively. Try to cook it too because self cooking makes your body release more happy hormones which is good for you.

8. Be social -

Indirectly being social means exploring your skills, making new friends , finding better communities , fun , enjoyment and forgetting negative things. Just go for it even if your mind stops you from doing it because it helps you to understand that there are people who do not have much talent but are doing well in life just because they explore whatever they have. So you can also do far better in life .

Being social not only means being active on social media platforms but it also means spending time with your friends and sharing your ideas, problems and goods with them. Again this is not easy for a depressed person but keep doing it until your mind starts accepting it. 

9. Start learning something new -

Learning something new makes you confident, happy and keeps you diverted from all the negative things, you overthink with no reason. Just go for it and explore your interests. It would make you meet new people as well as provide new platforms to work.

10. Work on yourself instead of thinking what people think about you -

Most people do not share their problems with anyone because they are afraid of their judgments but you need to be mature and understand that doing this is harming you internally . Just do not care about what people will say because everyone is unique and has different ideas. Just do work on your own skills and do not let anyone control your mind. Do share things with your loved ones and thank them for listening to you. All you need is to remove all the toxic people from your friend list who are discouraging you to grow.

Just help your depressed friends or relatives to overcome depression . The process is very slow but follow the steps and help them to enjoy their life back .
