There's your antidote to depression. Just stay focused on the Psalms and memorize as many as possible, then bring them to mind. We also do not know the relationship between depression and oppression by the Enemy. They could well be one and the same. So praising God will kill depression.
"Psalm 103
Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow
There are no prayer requests in this psalm of David, only words of praise. God’s people have so much to praise Him for. We need to read this psalm often so we will remember to praise God always for who He is and what He does for us.
The heart of worship can be described as our entire being gratefully praising God for all He is and all He does. To worship God is to bless the One who blesses us. Praising God is both a high privilege and a compelling responsibility.
A reminder to praise God (vs. 1-2) For emphasis David repeated his personal call to praise the Lord (Yahweh, I AM). A. Bless His holy name – David’s praise was personal (O my soul) and passionate (all that is within me). This would include his heart, soul, and mind (Mt. 22:36-37). We bless or praise God for who He is. His name represents His being and character. We should bless the One who richly blesses us (Eph. 1:3).
B. Remember all His benefits – We think of the song, “Count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.” We should take time to consider every blessing the Lord provides for us. These opening verses introduce the main section of the psalm which identifies some of God’s magnificent blessings."
