Become aware of your self-talk. Stop telling yourself how depressed you feel. This will only add to your misery and is very counter-productive. The word 'depression' is a vague term and does not in anyway help solve your problems. Rather than use the term 'depression', get more specific about how you are feeling. Are you feeling grief because a loved one has died or is injured' Are you feeling anger because your spouse has been unfaithful' Are you feeling stressed because there you have too much work to do' Telling yourself you are feeling very sad because your Son has passed away is far less debilitating than telling yourself you are depressed. It is natural to feel sad at the passing of a child. You need time to grieve and then let the grief go and start the healing process. You will add to your pain if every morning you wake up and tell yourself how depressed you are and how unfair life is.

Take up a sporting activity like walking, cycling, tennis, golf, water sports, riding, gliding, sailing, football, badminton. Something with a personal achievement goal. Spectator sports do not count and have little value for the purpose of defeating depression. Like alcohol (with which they are often associated) and television, they are simply ephemeral distractions. Depression cannot exist when the adrenaline is surging. Try bungee jumping.

Take ONE walk today, optimally in a park or natural setting, and notice anything that strikes you're a colorful, pleasing to your senses or beautiful.

Go out of your way to do something for someone else each day - a helping hand for an acquaintance or neighbour, a loving gesture for your spouse, an unexpected present for your children. It need not cost money but must involve your time, effort and devotion.

You may be able to get out of a bad mood by accepting that bad moods are an inevitable part of life! Sound confusing' Actually, the idea isn't that complicated. When you dwell on bad moods, they intensify. When you accept them as unpleasant but inevitable, they lose some of their grip on your psyche.

Well these are just a few postpartum depression tips that you can use and try to recognize.
