Suffering from depression means more than just dealing with a bad week or even a bad month. Depression is a weakening condition that can make it impossible for you to enjoy your daily existence. If you are plagued with feelings of overwhelming sadness, loneliness, worthlessness, and cannot imagine that things will get any better, then you may be suffering from depression. If you want to know how to overcome your depression and enjoy your life again, follow these steps.
1. Consult with a doctor. Only after a thorough evaluation with a psychiatrist or psychologist can you be diagnosed with depression. Many illnesses and medications may contribute to depressive feelings. Therefore, your doctor will administer a variety of tests, conduct a physical examination, and an interview to get to the bottom of your symptoms.
2. Recognize that you're suffering from depression. To overcome your depression, you have to first determine if what you're feeling are the symptoms of depression. Though depression is different for every person, there are a few signs that are hallmarks of the illness. You may have depression, if:

    You feel worthless, helpless, or guilty without knowing why.
    You're feeling hopeless about most aspects of your life and can't imagine that anything will improve for you.
    You feel a decrease in your energy levels and are tired no matter what you do.
    You feel restless at night and have trouble sleeping and/or waking up in the morning.
    You've stopped feeling pleasure doing the activities that used to make you happy, such as spending time with friends, pursuing your hobbies, or being intimate.
    There has been a dramatic change in your sleeping habits, such as insomnia, early-morning wakefulness, or excessive sleeping.
    You have lost your appetite or are overeating, but cannot stop.
    It is much easier for you to be alone than to put the effort into interacting with others.
    You constantly feel irritable for no reason.
    You have had thoughts of suicide. If you are thinking suicidal thoughts, seek help immediately.
3. Learn about the possible causes of depression. Although doctors have not narrowed down one clear-cut reason people experience depression, they tend to see this disorder arise in people with common genetic, biological, psychological, and environmental factors. Your doctor might determine any of the following as being a cause of your depression:

    Addiction to drugs or alcohol. If you have a drug or alcohol addiction, then this may be a cause for your depression. A doctor can help you see if you have an addiction and can tell you the next steps.
    Genetic causes. If depression runs in your family, you are more likely to be depressed. You can discuss whether other people in your family have suffered from depression, even if they were never diagnosed; you can also talk to your parents or other family members to see if people in your family had depression without you knowing.
    A hormonal imbalance. If you have a thyroid problem or other hormonal imbalance, it may be causing your depression.
    Another illness. A doctor can help you see if you're suffering from another illness that can cause or precede your depression, such as an anxiety disorder such as OCD, or even a psychotic disorder such as schizophrenia.
    A side effect of a medication you are taking. If you're taking a medication for another problem, a doctor can tell you if depression is one of the side effects and may be able to switch you to an equally effective medication without this side effect.
    A seasonal disturbance. Some people experience depression as a result of seasonal changes. For example, symptoms might last throughout the winter each year. This form of depression is referred to as seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

Maintain healthy relationships.
Fill your schedule with events and activities you love.

If you can't think of any words that can help them, why not try to do something for them. Make them smile and enjoy. Let them see how happy to live this life. A depressed person always seeks help because they can't solve problems in their life. So if you encountered a person who is experiencing depression, help them because that's what they all need.

The best you can do is to go to a psychologist. Alternatively you can try to find a new hobby to distract yourself from destructing thoughts.

Depressiin is a killer. And it is really hard to identify if someone was actually suffering from it. As for someone who's been through it. The best advice i can give to them is to pray and share what you are going through to the people you trust. Think of what made you happy all this years.
