Hi Lost1,
Besides medications, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a very effective treatment for depression. This is what our online program is based on.
Try to be reassured that depression is treatable. While there are no guarantees, and success rates vary with circumstances, appropriate treatment can reduce or completely eliminate symptoms of major depression in more than 80 percent of patients. Even with relapses, recurrences can be treated effectively.
Does your current treatment involve any type of psychotherapy? Although it may take some time, finding the right combination of support, CBT, counseling and meds can make the difference.
Keep us posted,
Casey
