1. Cut off all the caffeine, nicotine and alcohol.

3. Go green
Green leafy vegetables, if consumed regularly, would work better than any anti depressant. They are rich in folic acids, (a b vitamin), that is deficient in depressed people. Some fruits, beans and grains are also good sources of folic acid.
4. Include sea food in your diet.
Fish consumption is also a good idea, as they contain omega 3 fatty acids. The human body cannot produce it on their own, so one has to take them through diet. These are extremely important for a normal brain function. Lesser amounts of omega 3 fatty acids in the body also make one prone to depression. Though they are artificially added to some edible oils but consuming them through fish remains a better idea.
