how do you combat depression sometimes

sometimes i get depression, alone here in my little apartment...and it's like falling into a dark pit, it's a nightmare really.

i think my depression is mostly circumstantial, ie- living alone, never having found a support system or relationships, in my mid 40s with only my elderly parents for support, who live far away.....so there's times i get lost in my own head and fall into darkness.

i try to get out to the swimming baths a couple of times a week to keep up my fitness, but sometimes i don't make 2 times a week, because i struggle to make the effort...i have a personality disorder and severe social anxiety too, paranoia too...i feel a little disheartened at the mo, because ive put on a bit of weight again, after successfully losing stones years back....i needed to because i acquired diabetes type 2.


so as you can see, my depression is understandable and a lot due to 'circumstances'.
Maybe get out to a big park or somewhere where social interaction is limited, but where you can still be out of the apartment and participating more with life.
Being alone in an apartment all the time is only going to keep you depressed.
Recently I started overdoing on B6
This is why

"High-dose Vitamin B6 supplementation reduces anxiety and strengthens visual surround suppression"

But I take it only 4 days a week. Does the trick.
