Eggs, would you believe, are wonderful for helping you combat depression. You must make sure, however, that what you make includes the yolk.

Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all great for helping to boost your mood.

Grains can be excellent for driving away a terrible mood. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are great at helping you feel happier. They help you feel full too which can really help to improve your mood.
