Depends what is making one depressed and the type, whether I'm just feeling at my weakest or mentally drained; it can be for various reasons, or for no reason at all... Sometimes I wait it out because better days eventually come up, I can read and work on my knowledge point, if I am able to I will reduce it by enjoying something simple and small, while at other times talking about it with one of the few people I trust can reduce it a bit... surprisingly sometimes eating some types of fruit will help me a bit, I'm not sure.
Of course, music helps since I'm crazy about it since I can remember. Depends what type works on the individual.
In my opinion though, depression can't be overcome once and forever. But I accepted that for myself.
