How do you handle discouragment?

I'm afraid I don't handle it very well. I know I get easily discouraged. There are things that I do that help, like reading more of God's Word, praying more, asking hubby to pray, journaling and making sure that I am taking care of myself with more sleep and healthier eating. But there are times that depression is knocking on my door. I must continue to fight, have hope and believe. Sometimes it takes time....
