How did you overcome depression?

And what have you learnt from it? I feel like I'm in a place where I appreciate life and value the smalls things and want to better myself as a person. I have battled depression and through depression I think going through that experience helps you become stronger and you value happiness.

It was severe in my late-twenties and I'm quite lucky to still be here to talk about it. I've learned not to avoid things, not to hide, not to be dishonest with myself, and also that it's okay to find some things difficult.
