In reply to my post about depression that occurs after college, here is how you can fight post it.

GradSpot.com:

1. Exercise. 30 minutes of brisk walking, three times a week, may do as much good as anti-depression pills.
2. Stop drinking, smoking weed, or whatever we’re taking to support the local drug dealer. Drugs can rouse psychological demons. The National Institute on Drug Abuse says there’s an established link between smoking pot and both depression and anxiety.
3. Pinpoint irrational thoughts. Then beat the hell out of them.
4. Take life in bite-sized chunks. Prioritize the most important things that need to get done. Then identify small steps that’ll get ’em done.
5. Talk to someone. Try friends first. Often just talking about being anxious or depressed will make us feel better. It sounds weird, but it works.
