Depression is an illness that can be treated by a doctor, with the help of medication and/or counselling. This is a good "solution", if the sufferer follows the help and advice of the medic. Unfortunately depression is often ignored, but if someone broke their arm they wouldn't ignore it, they would go to the doctor and get treatment. When you go to the internet and search for "famous people who suffer from depression", it is quite an eye opener, and makes you feel you are certainly not alone.

There are many ways that can help with depression.There is no one 'cure all' answer.There are different types of depression & many causes.Medication can help along with talking therapies, such as counselling.Exercise is very good at combating depression as is sunlight.This is because they both help to release serotonin in the brain,a chemical that is often depleated in those suffering depression.
