Depression is overwhelming. Some relief would be nice. Any suggestions?

I cant say i really have the answer because im still living with extreme depression and anxiety but one thing that helps me is God. I do alot of research not just bible study. I look at the science of it, archeology discoveries, and none biblical history texts. Along with history of Israel and blah blah..but its actually fascinating. Ive learned so many things i never knew

Depression can be tough...ask me, I've been through it, but luckily I've chose the road less traveled...what I mean by this, is that I've decided not to take any drugs, but to get my mind to listen to a new story about me, from me...we do this every day...we seat ourselves in the past, which is really gone and place ourselves in the future, which must still happen...in other words, we are caught up in time...the past is futile and the future fearsome, because it is the unknown....some find it in God...for me this is the GREAT FACTOR, but then you need to define God according to your making, but for most of us, it proves to be difficult as we cling unto a PAST PERSPECTIVE which we received from where we come from: parents/community/church/school etc....barb08, my heart goes out to you, PLEASE TRANSFER YOUR ENERGY TO YOUR NEIGHBOR...TO THE OTHER....there is such a lot of other people that needs your company and help, even those that is struggling to deal with LIFE and pain....your job is to bring joy and even more, for LOVE is always unconditional....please look to all the HOLY ONES in our history and you will see that they all proclaim LOVE, the GOLDEN thread running throughout LIFE all the time, even now while I am writing this......it is healing once you perceive and accept it....XXXXXXX... in the meantime take your meds and know that LIFE is full of good intention coming from other people .....
