depression

I have learned some ways to help manage stress.  I am doing a bit better in responding to stress in ways other than restricting.  Now I need some ways to help manage depression that don't involve restricting.  I am happy with my life and yet I feel sad.  Circumstantially my life is going really well.  Emotionally though I feel as though each day is a chore to get through.  I want to laugh and jump up and down and cry uncontrollably all at the same time.  So what do you do to make it through times of deep depression when you want to be happy but can't?  How do other people cope?
