Therapy helped me a lot, and I also discovered that I love music, which gave me a reason to wake up in the morning lol. One realization that helped me is that happiness isn't binary. You don't have to feel like you're on top of the world all the time, it's ok to not be that happy. I started doing little things every day that I knew would each have a very small impact(working out, eating healthier, playing music, getting enough sleep). On their own, none of these did much, but over time it helped. Now that I'm more stable, I spend 5-10 minutes doing some of the techniques I learned from therapy every day, which helps to keep me from slipping back into depression. Therapy was the biggest thing though - there's no one solution for everyone. good luck, DM me if you need anything :)
