Depression
I've had a depression problem for years, I'm on and off my medication and when I don't take my medication I sleep late, stay up all night, I'm in a bitchy mood and I can't do anything I love to do. When I'm on my medication I'm okay but I still have my up and downs.
What are helpful tips to deal with depression?

If your depression stems from a traumatic experience, then go to therapy.
But if it's genetic, set a difficult but achievable goal and pursue it. Don't waste time by feeling sorry for yourself. The most important thing you can do is be productive.

Well here are my suggestion:
1. It is obvious that any medication that you get even making you feels the preassure, since you never had those sense of feeling that can make you feel released from any psychological burden. the right thing to do is finds your hobbies and interest. you might find it as an escape door from all the preassure.
2. Finds some escape sites for example on the roof top, under the bridge, see the night sky in the backyards or even in the edge of a cliff to relax and try to sense your environment try to imagine as if you were the winds, trees, etc that can live free and open to the nature.
3. you can even finds the peace by sleeping at the church during the preaching session, It sounds as a melodic lullaby to me (it works on me)
4. the most important think is that you must know yourself, capable of accepting the real you, throw away any denials then you can feel the burden is lifted, you can consider any preassure (families, works etc)as a challenge that you can beat not as a threats to motivates yourself along with it don't forget to make up your vision as the reason of existence of being Alive as a human. without a vision you can't see the future you, you can only see emptiness towards the future.

exercise and leave time to do the stuff that you love.

Continue taking your medication. But if it isnt working well for you, you may want to consider switching.
Exercising/running really helps with me depression because it releases stress. I dont know if you're seeing a therapist, but that helps out well too if you have one you like.
