What helps me is to focus on the things I have control over. I get so depressed over things all the time, and most of those things are things I can’t control. For example, lately I’ve been depressed about society’s definition of what a women should be.

So instead of feeling depressed because I know I don’t fit that description, I think about the stuff that I can control. Like eating healthy, exercising, being around close family and friends. These things boost my confidence and push my depression away.
