10 Tips to Reduce Clinical Depression Right Now

Stay Away From Combative People

When they start their rant, walk away.

It's hard to beat depression when surrounded with angry, depressed people. Spend time with positive people, and their positive vibe will be like armor against the barbs of combative people.
