A member asked:
Please tell me how long it takes for to break out of depression?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: How long it takes to heal from depression depends both on how severe the depression is and whether the person gets the appropriate treatment. The treatment includes psychotherapy with a trusted psychologist and possibly a consultation with a psychiatrist. It can feel like depression will never go away, but with treatment one can break out of a depression.
