Effective treatments include therapy (like CBT), medication (antidepressants), and lifestyle changes such as exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep. For more information, please contact your mental health provider or, if you are in Texas, schedule an appointment with Mid Cities Psychiatry.
Cognitive behavioral therapy is affective and at times antidepressant medication may be needed.
I believe a combination of antidepressant medication and talk therapy is the most effective treatment for depression. *Carol R. Zeits, Ph.D.*
