Before I continue to expand on this topic, I would like to first enlighten my readers in the meaning of depression and anger.
Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of loss of interest and sadness While Anger is a string feeling of annoyance, displeasure or hostility.

There is a clear difference between depression and anger from the definition, depression may only be mere sadness but anger supercede sadness, it encompasses annoyance.

Psychologically speaking depression can be triggered by sober reflection and loneliness, but generally humans do have several activities that spores them into depression; for instance on a long sunny day, due to the heat, someone going out to get something would have that downtrodden feeling that would eventually lead into depression. For some people, upsetting life events, anger, hunger, disappointment, poverty, and so on helps to trigger depression.
Anger for instance, some people are usually slow to react to anger issue but have a hot temper usually after they are hurt, they try everything within their grasp to control themselves after then they are disappointed with themselves have some sober reflection and eventually they are bored and depressed.

Coping with depression; depression here almost having a big difference, one can cope with depression by trying not to do what makes he or she depressed and also learn to seek out the support of others.

To conquer anger one has to always bear in mind that we are all humans and no one is perfect and so offences may come, but just as the scriptures says that trials may come but we have to overcome, we should see anger as trials and not yield to it, we should learn to control our anger and our temper in general we should have self-control; as this goes a long way in helping us control our self.

Let's start with depression here, I would like to list out some steps;

1. To cure depression, it is advised for one to avoid prolonged thinking that saddens the heart; this is because if those thinking continue eventually one would be really depressed.
2. It is also advised that one should make friends and also have a social life, friends that cheer up them so as to lift them up when they are down.
3. Know what makes you happy, and when it seems like you are getting depressed or your lonely you can start doing such things.
4. Avoid being too lonely except when you have some personal issues to settle.

Anger also have a way of making people do what in their real state of mind won't do to treat anger we should note the following steps.

1. While making friends we should take note of their character and not only friends people who we relate with, know what they do that hurt you, tell them the attitude they put on that you don't like or your not comfortable with, so that they would know what hurts you and avoid it.
2. Master the act of self control and temperance; this goes a long way in treating anger, by quenching it.
