Today I am listing what “To do” to avoid depression.
#1 Give thanks for what you have
#2 Start to know and do God’s will.
#3 To have good days memorize 1 Peter 3:11 Let him turn away from evil and do good
#4 Consider starting to exercise while looking at a printout of Bible verses that address your greatest emotional need
#5 Learn the habit of rapid forgiveness of others.
#6 Get busy helping others.
#7 Pray about what Bible topic you need to pound into you in order to pound out the depression. Example: You pray and feel like God is showing you that “frustration” starts your cycle toward depression. Do a Google search, “Verses frustration,” and study them often. Search “Verses _______ ,” to find verses that will address your pressing issue/emotion.
Finally, if you like all of these ideas consider printing them out. That way you can start working on 1 or 2 of them urgently, and then come back to the others later.
