Therapy has helped me a lot.
If you're in college, look to see if they have a counselor you cna talk to. For the most part it should be free.

I've gotten therapy numerous times in the past, but the problem is that I start to feel better, so then I leave, but then old habits start coming back.

Therapy can be aa lifetime journey. It's important to keep going even if things are going good. You might not have to go weekly, but it's important to have someone to talk to.

If it is perpetual, you may need actual antidepressant medication, prescribed by a doctor.

Well, that's not really going to work for me!

I've tried to do that in the past, but maybe I can actually try to follow through with it for once!

Drink.

Do you need someone to talk to? I'll try to be there for you.

Oh trust me, I do plenty of venting in the mod chat, I'm surprised nobody has told me to shut the fuck up or kicked me out chat already... 

How does the mod chat work?

It's a place for mods to chat... mostly about mod stuff... top secret... I've probably said too much already... shh!

I guess I should have eased a bit more into that one!

Play games, spend time with your significant other or, if you're single, flirt a bit, do some sports, eat some comfort food.

Yes, I'm single. I don't think I've ever flirted in my life.

How about trying it once? It doesn't have to lead to anything.
