Is depression curable

Answer 1

Depression is a very common but serious psychiatric disorder, occurring roughly in 1 of every 7 adults in their lifetime. It is important to treat not only because of the effects on daily functioning it has (lost work and income, decreased enjoyment, disruption of personal and social relationships and risk of suicide as well as a number of major medical illnesses), but also because bouts of depression tend to become a chronic problem when not addressed.

With the advent of much better tolerated and safer medications, depression is more treatable than ever. We also now know that certain behavioral treatments also work, particularly when paired with medication, including cognitive behavioral therapy; engaging in regular excercise, maintaining a regular sleep/wake routine and healthy eating habits helps too.

In the past, psychiatrists hoped to get patients feeling "better", and functioning again - but often settled for less than full symptom resolution. Now, however, with earlier and more aggressive treatment (higher doses, longer treatment times), full relief from all depression symptoms - "curing" depression" is understood to be definitely possible. The key seems to be finding the right medication and therapy regimen, following up regularly to monitor for side effects, safety, and compliance with the regimen and to maintain treatment for a sufficient length of time (usually up to 6 months for the first bout, but longer in cases where its a repeat occurrence).

Yes, it can be cured. If it's a major depression, then it would be difficult to cure. I had depression, and I cured it without any help.
Depression is neither. Depression can be managed by drugs prescribed by a physician and can be dealt with by a psychiatrist or your primary care physician, but cannot be cured even with treatment, in most cases. Talk to your doctor about planning a long-term care plan. It will help. This response has been given by a medical professional, but not a physician.

There are a number of different kinds of depression and a number of ways to treat depression. A person can be depressed because of the circumstances of his or her life, and those circumstances can change. Usually the remedy is obvious. If you are depressed because your girlfriend left you, you may be able to find another girlfriend.

There is also depression that is caused by mental illness, and there are psychiatric drugs which are effective in treating that kind of depression. These can be prescribed by a psychiatrist.
