natural cure for depression
I have a familial history of depression and my own depression has gone from mild to severe in the last year. I don't wish to take anti depressants as ive seen the havoc they created in both my mother and brothers life. Please recommend a natural cure for depression that you know works.

Thanks

Claire

Re: natural cure for depression
Hello Claire.

Therapy is something that has helped make my depression more manageable. Something else that helps me is being proactive.

If it seems like you've tried everything else I suggest not to rule out anti-depressants. Not everybody has the same reaction to anti-depressants and anti-depressants can sometimes really help with making depression easier to manage.

Re: natural cure for depression
Dear flamesabers,
I will take your suggestion, do you know any herbs or home remedies to substitute?

I've heard of St. John's wort being used to treat depression but I have no personal experience with this herb.
