A member asked:
Can you overcome depression with will power?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Power through: I would say with mild to moderate depression one can power through it with will power to be sure, but in the cases of severe depression the likelihood of powering through with will power alone is diminished. Why make life more miserable than it has to be? See psychotherapy, and meds if needed.
