Menial depression: this are the kind that happens occasionally, periodically or are usually triggered by someone, something / activities, 99.9 percent of the people all over the world suffer from this kind of depression, although it’s still abnormal and remains a disorder.
It could be avoided but never ignored once you let it set in.
The easiest way of avoiding this depression is to identify the cause before hand, know the cure for it (could be anything) so long it works for you.

Menial depression could be very tricky, it could make you conform to the sadness mood in minutes, if it’s not identified on time.

“For me dancing is my cure for menial depression”

I say it’s tricky because you could want to try to avoid it, but instead you might quicken it.

I have tried stopping depression with a slow music and it made it worse, so annoying!.
Never talk to Jerks, insensitive or unreliable people when you are about to be depressed, even when you talk to that person you are sure could make it all go away, start with ‘I don’t feel happy’ or ‘I think am about to be depressed’ this way the person will give you utmost attention if they truly care.

I hear some people say I like to go through this phase alone, that’s not a healthy way to avoid / cure depression, first of all you can’t go through it alone, even if u want to, something or someone have to help you avoid it, if nothing or no one is helping you, and you just lie down there, waiting for it to pass, you are already depressed at this point.

Folks that says alcohol / drugs help them conquer depression, my dear, you just worsen your case, shortly you will be an addict and soon you will begin to experience acute depression. This could lead to so many mental / behavioral problems, in some cases leads to death.
I don’t mean to scare you, it’s just the truth, people take their own life everyday and we begin to wonder what happened, it all started a long time ago, taking their lives was just an end result to an existing problem. No one wakes up one day and just take his or her life.
