10 Having Fun Having fun sounds easy, huh? Well, its not, not if you’re in the middle of a bad depression. You may already know what I’m talking about. Nothing sounds interesting, people that usually make you laugh are making you cry, your sleep schedule is either nonexistent or completely switched around, and working is next to impossible. So, you know what you have to do to take care of all that? WORK at HAVING FUN. I know it sounds kind of silly. The idea of actually putting effort into having fun does sound silly, but you have to do it. You have to deliberately inject enjoyable activities into your normal routine in order to keep that big bogeyman called depression out of your life. Get used to it because this is going to be necessary for the rest of your physical life. Don’t let a single day go by without some fun. Whether it be watching one of your favorite movies, calling a friend, or taking a three week trip to Australia to scuba dive, DO IT! This is actually one of the most important lessons in this entire manual, so clue in while you can. There will come a time when you will go a few days without some real in-your-face fun and then you’ll remember what you read here and immediately go out and enjoy yourself in order to alleviate whatever problem is circulating in your mind. Schedule fun regularly! Trust me, you’ll need it.
