| I just focus on more anime and stuff or act like a bigger pervert than usual to deal with it. I used to cry my eyes out and only eat a spoonful per day coz of das shite. |

| Depression is a mental disease/illness, and I don't think I ever had that, Anxiety may be one too but not "tough" and "serious" as depression I guess. As for anxiety, I don't know, but I'd say I take madicines for that. |

| Today they say you're crazy, tomorrow they will say you're a genious. |
| I just focus on the things I enjoy like anime, video games and my cat. Other than that I do counselling and am discussing medications with my GP. |
 |
| Play through it, take a moment to stop when you can but don't lose momentum,it's worst thing you can do. Make decisions that benefit you. Going out and spending all your money on alcohol benefits nobody. I generally lift weights if I'm down or depressed. |

Frag- said: Depression is a mental disease/illness, and I don't I ever had that, Anxiety may be one too but not "tough" and "serious" as depression I guess. It is as bad, depending on how bad it is. In fact some days I'd prefer to have depression over an anxiety disorder just because the depression has one angle that spreads to infect the rest of your life. Anxiety had multiple angles and exists as its own problem in all aspects of your life. If depression is a tree with traceable roots then anxiety is a weed thats everywhere. |

| I have depression and anxiety so while I don't feel like doing anything, the weight of my procrastination makes my anxiety go crazy so it's pretty bad. I tried medication (specifically high dosage Prozac) and I didn't like it, it made me feel like a zombie. I'm currently in therapy though, it's nice to have someone neutral and trained to help you. Getting outside helps me a lot. Sometimes I just like to go out into the country, lay in a field and listen to the wind and the birds and smell the fresh air. I also force myself to spend time with my friends even if I'm not feeling good. Cleaning around the house or just having a spa-type day even helps. Anime, video games, and art relax me a lot. Everybody's different, but forcing yourself to do something you used to love but stopped doing because of depression is a good start. |
 |
| I don't deal with my issues anymore because of medication, but before, I just tended to drown it out in anime, games, or talking to people. Having a diary was good, but after a month or so I gave up on it, and never really got back into it. Walks are definitely good, and the most effective. |

I'm not sure if I depressed, but whenever I go idle everything else gets worse. |

| I have both anxiety and depression and have done for as long as I can remember. I wasn't diagnosed until I was 19 though due to my family not wanting to deal with potential mental health problems and thus not letting me go to my GP. The depression used to be far worse and more prominent than the anxiety, but when I was 20-21 they slowly began to reverse and now at almost 25 I'm left with overbearing, life-ruining anxiety with a nice bit of depression running in the background. I deal with my illnesses by taking medication and having small breakdowns every few weeks. During these I apply for new jobs but don't attend the interviews I'm offered, cry every night because I can't face going in to work, have a panic attack in the toilets at work every day and come up with all sorts of self-destroying thoughts. I become convinced that my partner is about to leave me, that my friends do not like me, and that I am about to be fired at work. Childhood behaviours come out and I repeat destructive cycles and behaviours. And then it calms down, and I am able to return to normal thinking and enjoy some form of a normal thought process. I stop crying on my bf's shoulder, sobbing that he's going to leave me (he isn't). I calm down at work. I start doing things I like again (watching anime, mainly) and enjoy my simple little life. But I know that the anxiety will be back soon enough, whether its weeks or months it will be back. |

| Well I see a Counsellor every 2 weeks to talk out my problems as well has a healthy dose of antidepressants which I am unsure how they affect me still. I just try to stay social, we are social animals so be social works, I go out into town or to stores as well. How it effects my hobbies is either one way or the other. I either can't do anything or I do something for 10 hours straight, depends on the day. One time I watched over 200 episodes of gundam in a month because of it. |

| When I feel depressed, I just trash myself and say to not be so selfish and wasting time to be depressed. I then go crazy, yolo man |

| I just keep going. I live with my 2 best friends as roommates, and I'm always marathoning anime with one or both of them or just chilling and watching random shit. And my sister occasionally comes over and plays games with me (I have her playing FE:A rn lmao). We find it's much easier to deal with when you're just around other people. It depends on the person, I suppose. |

| Mine is cyclical, so I just try to wait it out until I feel a little better, whenever possible. Of course, the waiting time is pretty painful...thankfully I'll be seeing a therapist soon. |
| Feeling down or blue is a natural part of life. People let us down, things go wrong, we lose people we love or the dreams we've valued. When feeling down stretches over weeks or months, is occurring frequently and interfering with the ability to interact with people and enjoy life, it is likely that you're experiencing some form of depression. I have had depression for a few months. It was very hard period in my life. I went to psychoilogyst and he prescribed me abilify pills. If you want to, you can get your thoughts in order by writing in a journal or diary first. And sleep well. |

Immune said: by not being a sensitive little bitch that cries over everything i don't have instead I rejoice in everything that I do have, however small it may be we can all take a page from this persons reply. I personally deal with it by being more productive and not on the internet. anxiety. I rather lose all hope than have anxiety over something and its uncertainty. but I hate depression. Its the most exhausting feeling to wake up and feel as bad as you did the day before and have bad dreams in between. When you have depression you don't really rest. and going anywhere only reminds you of how depressed you are. |

| I usually do something I like. I watch stuff, I make some art, I fap, I play video games... And I'm keeping optimistic. |
 I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine. |
| I don't deal with it and try to hold it in as long as possible. Then I explode and kill everyone around me including myself. That calms me down in general. Seriously though I just try to occupy myself with games and anime. |
| Medication. GET IT. It's the only thing that really helps. XD Of course, you'll be on dependent on it and..... well, at least you don't have to spend your life on a couch, breathing deeply. :/ |

| Be emo about it and post about it on Tumblr, showing pics of me writing "I'm ugly" on my arm in marker. Just kidding, anyone who does that is extremely retarded and wants attention. Tumblr is a horrible website :). Just don't get depressed and anxious. I used to get anxiety all the time before going to gym class. I just never told anyone and told myself "Just another day of this stuff... but some day, it'll all go away and I won't remember it." I'm anxious right now, to be honest. What am I gonna do about it? Forget. |

| I used to cut myself. now I just "Deal" with it. Don't do anything. I probably would take depression meds but I don't want to see my psychiatrist every other month. |
 |
| I'm not depressed but like anyone I do feel sad or numb on occasion. The way I deal with this is honestly just toughing it out. Meditation can help me depending on the circumstances. Listening to music and talking to friends can sometimes help too. Nothing works 100% tho |

| Meds prescribed by a specialist, BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH I WANT TO GET RID OF THEM 8C If I get sad/anxious, my first thing is to go and chat to Mom. She has this state too and she understands me like no one other. Other things that help: going outside (during the bright part of the day - autumn and winter especially suck for depressed people due to the lack of natural light, so make sure you have light switched on in your house at least somewhere when it's dark), watching anime and YT, reading, taking a hot shower/bath. When it's not that bad, I just cling to my cat and listen to her purring. Or another cat. Or talk to my dog. Pets are precious - if you have an opportunity to have and take care of one, please consider. Or I also read fanfics about my OTPs and fantasize about them. |
| I go for a walk, somehow it clears my mind Sometimes I drink but with friends, never alone Listening to music is also good and it calms me down |
 |
| I don't. I let it slowly take over and we become one. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| Im trying to force myself to draw or play baord games with some relatives. |
| I knew that I had problems with anxiety for the longest time but I guess now I'm getting some bouts of depression too after looking up what the actually symptoms were. Guessing university is probably the cause, truly the gift that keeps on giving. |
| short term fixes... Play pvp online games Go get wasted get engrossed in your hobby perm fixes get help from a doctor who specializes in depression/anxiety. |

| I've got both, but prescribed medication and therapy's done me wonders. When it starts getting bad I try to distract myself through writing, playing video games, or making silly lists, with a ton of jogging/walking breaks in between. Stuff that keeps my mind and body busy. If that doesn't work though I usually end up sleeping. |

| I just put up with it or try to ignore it like one of these guys said drugs are fun when depressed but once my high has finished I feel even more horrible than before |
| Whenever I'm having a bout of depression or anxiety I drink. And I drink a lot. I don't want to go to see a doctor about my issues just yet as I'm moving away from my current location in a few months time, so it can wait. And this is how I've been dealing with my issues for a long time..numbing myself by getting roaring drunk. It helps, but it isn't a healthy solution in the long run. |

| Entertainment helps (watching anime, reading manga, playing games, watching movies etc.) |
| Do things, specifically things that suck and things that force you into uncomfortable social situations, and no, you are not an introvert, you just don't have friends. It's okay, was there too sort of, just make yourself clean your house and work out, you'll feel better (not you as in referring to YOU OP, but the ubiquitous you) |
 |
| People usually hang out with friends or from ceilings |
 |
| As much as possible i wan't to be distracted thus i do this following to make me relaxed and loss some stress/depress. -Eating Ice cream -Playing with my pets -Watching Anime / Movies -Reading Manga / LN -Listening to Musics -Hanging out with my irl friends |
 |
| You play a staring game with depression and give anxiety the silent treatment. |
