Is it important to take control of your state? You bet! It affects your whole life... finances, relationships, career, health ect.
To take complete control of your state you must be aware of the three elements which affects your state!
FIRST: Physiology: How do depressed people look like? How do you know? Is their shoulders down or up? Is their voice loud or quiet? Do they speak fast or slow? Are they breathing deep or shallow? You see, our physiology affects our biochemistry. In order to feel in specific way, we need to use our body in specific way. Our physical body is sending signals to our brains constantly about how we should feel. Great thing is that we can "manipulate" our brain.. Now try this: Stand up straight and push your shoulders back, breath deep and lift your chin up towards ceiling and put a big big smile on your face and hold it for 30 sec. Now at the same time try to feel depressed without changing anything! Can you do it? Why not? Because your physical body is sending certain message to your brain about how you should feel right now and that state is happy and certain according to your body.
SECONDLY: Language: What kind of language I´m using in my head? What do I say to myself? Do the language I use support me or disempower me? "Im not enough" or "She cannot be attracted to me" or "I don´t have enough money".. this kind of language puts us in very uncertain and sad even depressed state and that´s why we often sabotage our possibilities to success in any area in life. This has nothing to do with reality and how things really are. We can choose to empower ourselves by using language like "How can I attract this specific girl" or "I don´t have the money now, but how could I get it?". Using right questions we can literally change our lives.
THIRDLY: Focus: What do you focus on, absolutely determine how you are feeling. This should be obvious for everyone. We can choose to focus for example on all great things that has happened to us today or we can focus on negative things like "Im so sweaty, neighbour is a prick, I didn´t like the food I ate at the restaurant, I´m too fat, I don´t like my shoes, WHY NOBODY LIKES ME???????????" Hmmm.. I wonder why :)

So these three elements determine how you feel. Very simple way to change our feelings.. still most of the people change their states my using drugs, drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes. It´s up to you are you in control of your life or are you controlled by your circumstances around you :)
