Medication & Therapy: Depression Rx - Meds and Therapy. very simplistically - clinical depression - decrease sleep, energy, appetite, concentration, motivation. sad mood, no enjoyment in anything. but you need to see a psychiatrist to be diagnosed and treated. several meds available. profiled on side effects. Therapy VERY IMPORTANT part of Rx. so seeing a doctor -get diagnosed - then Rx with meds and therapy.
