Self Love is Important
You want to surround yourself with the right people and environment, that can help calm you down and improve your mood. Allowing yourself to rest and be around people and things you enjoy can be extremely helpful. Make a cup of tea, read a good book, meditate, put on music you enjoy, surround yourself with good scents from scented candles or aromatherapy or call a friend.

Accept Yourself
We are all unique and no one is perfect, everyone has good and not so good qualities. We can definitely work to improve in some of these areas that may be holding us back, but it’s important to remember that you have significant value that is not dependent on other people’s opinions. Participation in activities that you are good at or areas you are strong in can help grow feelings of self-worth and self-esteem.

Stay Connected
You may have a desire to isolate yourself and withdraw from others, but this can actually worsen depressive symptoms. Make sure that you stay connected with others, find a few people that you can talk to and obtain support from. Talking with others will also help you to change the focus from how you feel to what’s going on outside of your depression.
