There are ways to help depression other than prescription medications. Fresh air and exercise can help a lot. Just take a walk everday. The herb, Saint John’s Wort, seems to help some people, but you have to take it for a month before it starts to work. For my own depression, I have found a very strong multi-vitamin with lots of Vitamin D, that keeps my depression under control. Coral Calcium can also help. Good Luck!

If you go to see a professional, tell them that you don’t want to be put on medication. Chances are they will try it without medication first, but understand that if they put you on medication it is because they think it will help you.
