Literally get therapy and medication. I tried all the self-help shit and while it helped a little it was just putting me off from real treatment.

Go outside and get some exercise. Reading books won't help. A lot of people are depressed in part because they think too much.

If you're actually depressed, there is no home remedy for it. Its a chemical imbalance in your brain that can't be corrected by helpful literature.

See a mental health professional.

If you aren't actually depressed well, then, I advise that you go fuck yourself.

Just go running.

Learn about magick from someone who isn't manipulative.

Become a Better You

I'm not religious so I just ignore the God references in some of these
these are some christian and buddhist books but mostly positive thinking/inspirational/motivational

the way to beat depression is to not look at your current shitty circumstances, but hope for and visualize a better future. by focusing on this positive future you are motivated to do the necessary actions to improve your life

as opposed to just checking off some self-improvement list with decreasing motivation.

anyways, buying a bunch of cheap used books that could change your life is so worth it.
