Answer to Question 1

Answer:
 Eat well. Don't skip meals or binge on junk food. Calming your mind and emotions will be easier if your body isn't nutritionally stressed.
 Get the right amount of sleep. A regular schedule that includes 79 hours of quality sleep every night is important to both your physical and mental well-being. Despite your busy schedule as a college student, make sleep a priority. If you're depressed and find yourself sleeping in, know that the very act of getting out of bed can be an instant boost. Once you're up, open the curtains and windows, as letting in light and air will help improve your mood.
 Get some exercise. As noted earlier, exercise releases body chemicals that boost mood. Even a half-hour walk is likely to improve your mood, clear your head, and make you feel better. Daytime exercise will also help make you tired and make it easier to sleep.
 Set realistic goals. Don't expect yourself to function at your regular level. Set smaller goals, and break big jobs up into small ones.
 Take steps to build your self-esteem. Cognitive-behavioral theory recognizes that there are things you can do to change the way you think and the way you act that will, as a result, change the way you feel.
