Yes, depression can definitely be overcome. Utilizing multiple avenues provides better results for all clients. Ensure you have a support system in place, including a therapist to address your concerns and needs as friends and family most likely will not have the necessary tools to help you to move forward emotionally. Medication can also assist you through difficult times. The newest resource is ketamine-assisted therapy, which has a remarkable track record of alleviating depression. You can find more information on ketamine at SouthsideKetamine.com or check your local area for a therapist to assist you in navigating this challenging time.

While depression is not curable, it can be successfully managed, enabling those with depression to live happy, productive lives. Sadly, about 35 percent of those struggling with depression never receive the treatment they need.

According to National Alliance on Mental Health (NAMI) statistics, severe depression, also known as major depressive disorder or clinical depression, affects over 19 million adults in the United States. Young people are not immune to depression, either. NAMI data finds about 3.1 million children aged 12 to 17 suffered at least one depressive episode in the previous year.
