Depression [Mature]

[Omni]

My question is: If you know your mood is about to take a turn for the worse in the near future, what do you do to manage/lessen the impact?

Anything that makes me feel pampered (shut up, a man needs pampering too) or otherwise things that are comfort food, literally or figuratively. So go get yourself a fancy milkshake, order takeaway - whatever it takes, whatever your thing is. I overspent ridiculously this year managing my depression in the early months and practically spent myself into a corner, but it made me feel better even only slightly, and that stopped me from potentially fucking killing myself.

Also, feel free to rant here or in the chatbox. Generally people are pretty lovely and understanding. Sometimes I know I'm being unreasonable and irrational, but you just gotta vent, y'know? It helps. And if you want to skype me (it's helixagon) I'll listen to your rants.
