Getting a Grip on Depression

The depression got worse today, but I forced myself to do a number of things to combat it:
1. I showered
2. I wore something that I feel good in when I am well
3. I got out of the house
4. I called friends and family even though I wanted to isolate
5. I listened to music with a fast tempo
6. I read supportive and spiritual material

These steps really helped even though they were not easy. Now the really hard part comes: dealing with the issues that were spiralling me down. Ugh.
