Default Why does most people jump straight to medication instead other alternatives

Hi, i was a person with servere deppression.( please excuse my spellingi have some learning DIFFICULLTIES) At first i started eating lot less processed food and drank alot of water, BIG improvement! Than i start excersing , after that everything started falling into place and was much smoother.

If i may get off topic for a second, i really wish people would stop thinking they have to "deal with it and move on"...that sounds like something your stuck with for the rest of your life. WELL YOUR NOT! I think people need to talk more, get resourses, and follow your dreams thats all. As soon as i started eating better and excercising every thing else feel into place, i became more confident and motivated to do things. I seen a vibrant side come out that i did not want to go away. I can tell you the biggest thing i delt with was motivation, well it does'nt take much to cook, u have to anyway, midess well eat healthy. Different salads or rice each side order. Water , waater , water, but no too much it can over work your badder and go into failur .

Now i am starting acupuctiure , which holly crap helps with my cronic anixety by 80% and i have only went once so far , which is starting to take away my depression , which is making me more vibrant...see how every thing falls into place.

Monday i start yoga classes and also hypnotherapy. I have heard ALOT of goods things from these also. I keep falling into depression but the days are getting shorter of me being in it. I have been struggling a bit right now, but because of some issues i will explain a little more when i have my notes together.

ANYONE TAKING MEDICATION FOR WHAT EVER PLEASE CHECK INTO THE MEDICATION FIRST, AND NOT JUST A FEW WEBSITES 100'S , WHATS YOUR LIFE WORTH A FEW OR 100'S. GO TO THE LIBRARY, TAKE NOTES.

All i'm saying is you are never stuck with mental health as long as you belive it u will have it. And just because a doctor gives you medication does'nt mean that should be your first route. One thing all doctors say no matter if there family doctor or homeopathic doctors, they will all say eating healthy and excersising is the best out of everything.

Will write more more about all the difficultes and statergies i have latter.

Would love to hear replies of those who took mysteps or are inthe process of it.
