A member asked:

Can you tell me how to cure depression when i am depressed without prescription drugs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Options: There is no cure for depression. It is finding the best treatment that works for you in managing the symptoms. For some people, medication is helpful. Other treatment options include exercise, therapy, support groups, journaling and eating a healthy diet. Vitamin d, b complex and omega 3 supplements can be helpful.
