Practice gratitude: Focusing on what you appreciate about your life and expressing it—either by telling someone or writing it down—can affect the serotonin and dopamine systems in your brain and produce changes in the reactivity of key brain regions that last for weeks or months.
Find a mantra find a phrase that’s easily remembered and that they can feel a connection to.
Sleep: Sleep reduces your emotional reactivity and reduces the rewarding pull of unhelpful behaviors,” like bingeing on ice cream.
Talk to friends and family: Talking to others about your depression can really be giving the other person a gift. “The other person might be dealing with something similar that they haven’t been able to talk about. Mental health and treatment are finally getting destigmatized.”
Real Life of an MSW 
I truly believe that we share our stories we’d have less mental issues. So often we just dress things up or use negative things to cope. But the brain is a beautiful organ. It will not fail you if you don’t try to trick it and if you take care of it. As the word of God says, we really do overcome by the words of our testimony!
