FAQs
Doctors typically recommend either antidepressant medications or psychotherapy for individuals experiencing depression. In cases of severe depression, where symptoms significantly hinder daily functioning, a combination of antidepressant medication and psychotherapy may be necessary.
Remember, in addition to clinical treatments, if you are one of the millions of people living with depression, there are also healthy lifestyle habits that can help you feel better. Prioritise self-care, manage stress through activities like meditation or tai chi, maintain a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and ensure you get sufficient sleep. These habits can make a significant difference in your well-being.
Several factors can contribute to difficult-to-treat depression. These may include a poor initial response to drug treatment, the risk of relapse despite ongoing treatment, the use of multiple antidepressants, chronicity, poor quality of life with daily dysfunction, a high risk of suicide, substance use, and high levels of psychiatric symptoms.
