What do you all do to combat it? What gets you through it? I would like to compile some resources here for people who are currently depressed.
Something that has helped me is meditation and mindfulness. I can go into more detail regarding my meditation and mindfulness technique if anyone wishes me to.
If you, or someone you know, is feeling suicidal or just needs to talk to someone please use this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines

Depression
Time is wise and our wounds seem to heal to the rhythm of aging,
But our past is a ghost fading out that at night it’s still haunting.

Re: Depression
I take an herbal sedative complex every day and keep myself occupied mostly with my daughter.
Figured I would elaborate. My depression only kicks in when my anxiety gets out of control. They diagnosed me with GAD over a decade ago and tried putting me on a bunch of pills which did not help. I smoked for years to keep relaxed but now I take st john's wart and valerian plus a few things to balance me out now and then. Warning: St John's Wart often reacts to medicines so ask a doctor or do your research.

I'm going to have to agree with Callen. Go outside get a hobby and get off facebook. Really if people would trash their smart phones and go do something they would be a lot happier. I am outside atleast 10 hours per day and it makes a huge difference compared to being stuck in a lab all damn day.
