Mild depression can take the following methods.
1, find fun, try to overcome unhappy emotions; such as listening to music, comedy, playing ball, singing karaoke, and more outdoor sports such as swimming, sunbathing; temporarily out of the bad environment, such as conditions can also be climbing sports, or travel, to some famous mountains and rivers to cultivate the body and mind, improve mood.

But here we need to remind patients: if you are in a bad mood, do not drink to drown your sorrows, or go to pornographic places to vent your emotions, or look for opportunities to revenge on others to revenge on society to vent their anger and take the road to crime. In fact, this will often make things worse.
