Take a deep breath and grieve. then start with the small stuff. pay a bill or dust a piece of furniture. then see how you feel. try doing just one thing a day until you feel you can handle more.

If you have a history of depression, you may want to consult your doctor, but if you're just having a down day, get in your comfiest pj's, grab a nice blankey and a box of kleenex, and cry it out honey!\nFeel better! =D

Be very kind to yourself.  Let yourself be sad about how things didn't work out, but after a reasonable amount of time, start to distract yourself from your sad feelings.  Be around friends that make you laugh, do nice things for yourself, take time getting to know yourself again and what you want out of life besides what you don't have, then start taking steps to make all of your dreams come true.  With time your heart will heal.

Find something you do really well, and do it often. (For me, it was singing and martial arts.) \n\nSmile at strangers. It's rewarding when they smile back.\n\nThink only good thought about yourself. (I know, it's corny, but it works).\n\nOnly listen to positive, uplifting music.\n\nKnow that God loves you everyday, no matter what. He created you for a purpose. Find it.\n\nGet plenty of exercise.....it releases happy endorphines and makes you feel better.

go out with some friends, get a make over buy some new clothes things that will make you feel a little better is a start. you will start feeling better and you will meet someone soon, but first you have to stop doing what you are doing and start taking care of yourself a little more

That really depends. You could try something like caffeine which MIGHT offer a temporary surge of energy which might get you to feeling a bit better, but professional care is really the best way to go if you are feeling very depressed, especially if it lasts any length of time (over a week or so).

Exercise. Get plenty of fresh air and find someone or something that needs your help. I found wild orphaned animals and bike riding. Both are so important to my mental well being as I am very sick and my illnesses depress me. Once I started to focus on other things, like the animals or my exercise, I started to feel much better. I still get sad and even depressed but my friends and family know the signs now and they always find a way to get me through the bad spots. \n\nSometimes though, you just have to feel what you are feeling, then and only then can you move onward and upward!\n\nGoddess bless and good luck.

Look through old photo albums! That always cheers me up. Also, go somewhere with lots of orange like a park with lots of flowers. Orange is proven to improve mood. Go for a long walk. That will clear your mind or whatever your sad about. Hope you feel better.

I pray, read the Bible, put on good music (something with a beat to get me moving and laughing again), call a friend and go get some gelato, write, paint, workout, curl up in my hubby's arms, call someone I love and see how they are doing.  However, if I need to cry, I do.  Crying is good sometimes.  \n\nIt depends on what the situation is.  The important part is recognizing when you are down, so you can find a way to come back up. :)\n\nKeep smiling :))

I would try to let my family and loved ones know that I love them. And tell them not to be sad for too long, because it is bad for you. Maybe try to think of something funny, to lighten things up. Like, "Hey Mom, cheer up, at least I won't be borrowing money from ya all the time!" Then maybe eat a sandwich. And hug someone......... hopefully someone I know............ and like............ and who is not very stinky.

Find a swimming pool or a body of water hopefully with cold water and jump in!  It will bring your subconscious back to the serenity of the womb.  Guaranteed to make you feel better.  Can you drive to a beach?  That is the ultimate!  Moods shift fast... you will get better and laugh again.

Oh hon, I'm so sorry. Here's a virtual hug.*HUGZ*\n\nTry to think about what you'd like your life to be like. Then think about the steps to take so that it gets there. There is no problem that can't be conquered, and all situations are only temporary. I promise things will get better. \n\nWhat really helps me when I feel down is long walks. The exercise helps relieve stress, and the quiet, rhythymic time helps calm my thoughts. \n\nI'd make funny faces at you but you can't see me!\n\nGood luck, I hope you feel better.\n\n\n\nOh, and misspinkbox is reported. Let's see how superior she feels now.

What you need is friends. Talk to them, hang out with them, etc. If you're upset, being alone is the worst thing. I guarantee you'll start feeling better if you build up close friendships.\n\nAnd by the way, if you're still upset, you can ask your friends for help! It's a win-win situation!
