Many treatments: Generally a combination of antidepressant medication and cognitive behavioral therapy including mindfulness practices. Best to see a qualified psychotherapist and a psychiatrist for severe depression. There are also physical conditions that cause depression symptoms, so a medical evaluation is also important.
