I don't want to minimize the pain and limitations associated with depressions.
If you are severely depressed and/or suicidal, please do stick with the recommendations of your treating physician.

Please also have a full screening for bipolar conditions prior to attempting antidepressant therapies.

Please always be careful.


Many people have health conditions which prevent them from using the standard depression medications.

I am wondering if there may be some helpful alternatives?

Have you found a different approach helpful?
(Please include supplements, behavioral approaches, etc.)

Are you aware of some literature which may prove helpful?

We have several members suffering with depression and unable to take the standard medications. Some have heart issues, some are pregnant, some just cannot tolerate the meds, etc.

Thanks so much for sharing any experiences/information!

P.S. I realize this is a question which has been previously answered, in various ways, here. When people are depressed, they may have difficulties getting the information together via search engines, etc. If you have some potentially helpful information, please share. This is a very helpful community!
