How do you battle depression by your own?
AKA please, don't tell me "get professional help". Poor people can't afford it anyways.

Honestly, running, walking alone in the park, listening to music, reading about depression to comprehend if what I am feeling is concerning.
Running: As I run, I try to focus on my pacing, my breathing, and I stop when I get tired, when I'm DONE, that I think helps because all of the endorphins released. Walking alone in the park: This also helps me because I get to see nature, watching birds or squirrels going about their business relaxes me, and also I try to treasure those little moments as mine. Listening to music: And I mean REALLY listening to music, focus on the whole song or different parts of it makes me appreciate it more and it can make me feel immerse in it.
To me it's not a magic cure to depression but it helps a lot when I'm feeling down, I know everybody is different but this is what helps me.
If you try to battle depression and can't for some reason, looking for professional help is key, don't let it grow or it will consume you.
Stay strong my friends.
Amen. I've been listening to the same album since february. Trying to decypher every baseline, every cymbal.
Brings my mind to a happier place.
Sometimes I listen to 1973 by TH White in repeat in my car.
I don't know what that is. Please, tell me all about it
