Lately I have been getting depressed for no reason.

I know it is related to hypothyroidism, and I may have depression on top of that.

We are in the middle of adjusting my replacements.
& I see the Dr. on Thursday.

but in the meantime... I am depressed for no reason and it is terrible, the worst depression I have ever felt, coming on unexpectedly in terrible "attacks".

How do you get through depression that happens for no reason? What are some things you do when you are sad to make yourself feel better?

Practice good sleep, nutrition and exercise habits.  Every time I feel down it's because I haven't had much sleep.

don't sit around and let it consume you
go out, party, meet new people, talk about fun things and it'll go away

it helps if you express yourself. alot of mine is due to repression.

Write. but that only works somtimes.
Im kind of like you, I have a great life, great friends, a boyfriend, family. Yet there is still somthing.....missing.
I cry for no reason somtimes.
I don't know whats wrong with me.
My mom doesnt think I have depression.
Im almost sure I do.

Go to sleep, that will relieve you for a few hours.

Well this happens to me as well, I hate it with a passion that grows, I try to talk to the people that care about me like my friends, I try to keep myself busy by cleaning the house, and I write, because I'm a writer.

I know how you feel, sometimes I get these terrible depressed thoughts for no reason at all. It IS like an attack, heh.
Usually what helps me is talking to people. Or writing down how I feel in a journal or blog.
Hope you're ok ^^

A lot of teenagers suffer from what seems like chronic depression simply because of hormones.  

When I'm feeling bad, I like to 'get lost' in a book.

that's part of clinical depression, it often happens for no reason. you'll get through, just talk to people and do proactive things
