Negative Habits Depression can be triggered by negative habits that start you sliding down a slippery slope that is hard to crawl out of. Identify those habits so they can be changed. Replace your negative habits with positive habits. If you get depressed after being in negative situations, stop blaming yourself because that is never the solution to feeling better. Be assertive when convincing yourself that things are in fact okay and avoid the pitfalls of self sabotage. Take a long bath if your depression symptoms are nagging you. Soft music, a book, or even lighting candles can change an ordinary bath into a relaxing experience. Keep the water nice and warm as you soak, as this helps to relax muscles. Set up a routine for taking your antidepressants. The best time to do this is in the morning. Having a pattern will help to ensure that you don’t miss a day. Also, when you take the medication in the morning, you are able to get through your work day and take care of any other important responsibilities. It’s never an easy battle when depression is your enemy. Reflect on what you have and not what you don’t. When you are depressed, it may be even harder to stay grateful, but it is also more important. This will improve your emotions and your attitude. The foods that you eat can affect your body and make you feel better, or worse. Bad nutrition can lead to depression, as well as many other sicknesses. Focus on eating lean meats, vegetables and whole grains. Keep up with your well-plan. Go to your therapy appointments and do the activities as suggested by your therapist. List the things you need to talk to the therapist about. Doing all of this will keep your sessions on track. Treating your depression can be very renewing, but it can also be a lot of work.
