I don't have depression as such. But yes, there are days when I feel low on energy and motivation. It's hard to push myself to do the bare minimum required. Listening to music, a long walk taking fresh air or watching a good entertaining movie lifts my mood. Socialising with close friends and family or even talking with them over phone helps me. I am blessed to have few close people who make me feel safe and I feel comfortable sharing with them. 
Depression can be tough. One has to watch for the red flags and triggers that might worsen the situation. And try every bit to avoid them
