Yes, I have with out medication, but there are always bad days you have to struggle with.
The best way to beat depression is to go outside, socialize, and exercise.

Regular exercise can really help! The human body is quite efficient at combatting naturally a lot that ails it. This isn't to say that medication isn't necessary for those who are battling more chronic bouts of depression.
I don't have depression issues but if I'm stressed, I can get depressed. And exercise helps pretty well. But, sometimes you don't feel like doing much when you're feeling down or depressed, but if you push through it, exercising for a time, it can really benefit mood.

Meds, my social network and trying to enjoy all the small things in life is what I do to keep it at bay.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I was always wondering what is the difference between those who are depressed often and those who are never depressed.

I very rarely feel depressed anymore. Starting anti-psychotics actually curbed it significantly. The rest was stomped out by zoloft.
