I was prescribed cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Prozac. The CBT did far more for me. I dumped the Prozac after a few months. I have bad days and good days, but I know how to get through the bad ones now. I know what prompts them and even when its hard to think positively I still know that I won't think things are as bad tomorrow. YMMV! A lot! As I get older I feel healthier when I move, touch people, give love and get love. In the US, we _do not prioritize health_, physical nor mental. We're surrounded by shit food. We're "insured" basic baseline function, and improvement often has to come out of our own time, energy, and money. If you're in a relaxed white collar environment, its easy to duck out for an hour of therapy. If you're on the clock, it's almost impossible. This is the bigger issue. Again, some ppl DO need SSRIs or they will harm themselves or others. But always pair with some form of talk therapy and get some daily exercise.
