Coping Tools for Depression: Take Our Polls!

Depression sucks. And it can feel like an uphill battle trying to find ways to cope. Tools, techniques, therapies... There's a lot out there.

Depression's ups and downs

So where do you even begin? Especially if you lack the energy or brain space to take action or make decisions. Sometimes that first step is the hardest.

Or maybe you've made it to the "other side." You're feeling better, lighter, or clearer. And you're able to share the coping tools that got you through the darkest periods of your depression.

There's no magic answer

Below are some polls for folks at any point of that journey. If you're struggling – take a look at what has worked for others. If you're doing well – share how you've coped and worked on your wellness.

There's no right answers or one magic solution, but we think there's strength in knowing you're not alone. And that you'll get through this, too.
