Depression is the moment you wake up and open your eyes then realize that you are living a never-ending nightmare.

Depression is realizing that death no longer scares you. I know how difficult it is to go through this every single day. And there are days when you just want to curl up in bed and just hope that everything will be over.

And while there’s no magic pill or no instant remedy for this, there are still a lot of things that we can do to cope and fight it on days when depression hits us hard. That’s why today, I have decided to share with you, the changes that I did on a day to day basis that helped me managed my depression. 

Try not to isolate yourself

It’s so easy to isolate and shut yourself out when you’re depressed. Depression does this – it wants you to feel alone. There were days where I let this rule me but I’ve learned that staying isolated from other people just made my depression so much harder to cope with.

It just made everything worst. So now, every time this happens I remind myself that I need to let other people in and I do the best that I can to ease gently back to the world.

I know how scary it is to step out of your comfort zone and reach out but we must constantly remind ourselves that staying isolated is not going to help us heal.
