A member asked:
How should i treat clinical depression without taking any antidepressants?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Natural treatment: Alternative treatments for depression include exercise, eating a healthy diet, therapy, herbal supplements ( i.e. 5 htp, same and st john's wort), journaling and support groups. Vitamins can also be helpful such as a b complex, vitamin d and omega 3. If you have severe depression, therapy and medication work best.
