There's nothing I can think of that works better while being good for you at the same time. It looks like working out helps a lot of people who are dealing with depression, myself included.

I know working out really helps, and it tires me out enough that I can actually sleep at night without help (even though I work out in the morning!). You know, I used to work as an artist's model for sketch groups and drawing classes...there are probably groups like that in your area where you can get some drawing in with a live model, whether dressed or nude. Depending on the group, some even have a group 'leader' that acts as an instructor, helping people improve their work. If this sounds interesting to you, why don't you try contacting the Fine Arts department of your local community college and find out where else they send their models? They can probably get you in touch with several groups in your area that you can try and see which one fits for you. I struggle with depression myself (I’m bi-polar, actually), and it’s a bitch.
