A member asked:

How can i cure my depression i'm on medicine s since a year but not outof it fully?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

As above : I agree with dr. Fowler medication work 45 percent of the time and therapy work 35 percent of the time, but both can work 85 percent of the time. See u psychiatrist if not in therapy , let him refer u for therapy and if in therapy discuss with u provider to adjust u medication and make sure u r compliance.
