STAY AWAY FROM SUGAR
During the times you feel down and depressed, keep away from all sugars, even
the “healthy” ones like molasses, honey, and fruit juice. These sugars are incorporated
into the bloodstream at a quicker rate than carbohydrates from things like whole
grains. Though you get a quick blast of energy and spirit, it will quickly dissipate resulting
in a feeling of malaise and depression.

GET SOME EXERCISE
If you know what the cause of your
depression is, you should try to make
some changes. When negative thoughts
bring you down, start doing something
physical. Create an exercise program for
yourself that will keep you more active.
Exercise is a great way to cope with
depression. Studies show that those people
that exercise for at least 30 minutes
each day better respond to depression
treatment. Exercise is sometimes just as
helpful as a prescription anti-depressant.
Just parking a little farther away, or opting
for the stairs instead of the elevator can
give great benefits not only to your physical
health but to your mental health, too.
