When I was going through a rather hard time a few months ago, I would play Gutar Hero when I was down. You really can't focus on two things when you are playing that game, it is either 100% GH or 100% everything else, so it was a wonderful distraction.
A few years ago I fought a bout of depresion right after high school. During that time, I wrote a full screenplay (120+ pages). Sure it was awful, but it kept me sane ^_^
The trick really lies in finding whatever works for you, obviously no one here knows you better than you, so anything we say may not be what you need at this point in your life. Don't be afraid to share some of your pain with friends, after all it is what they are there for!
