Pets, definitely pets. Even if you can't get out of bed because of depression, you can get up to feed the cat. The greatest anti depressive is a fuzzy little forehead, and a plaintive quizzical meow makes life worth living.

Absolutely for sure. I am now 73 years old and have suffered from depression my entire life. I am now dealing with Stage IV metastatic lung cancer. Nothing makes me feel better then being with my little dog. I talk to him constantly and hug him as much as I can. The physical contact is very soothing. Pets can indeed be miracle workers.

Exercise. I go to the gym 4 times a week, swim one a week and take a Pilates class. It always makes me feel better when I have worked out.

Being by myself. The best part of the working day is clocking out, knowing I'm going home to a nice cup of tea and total solitude.
