Your question presumes that doing such things are possible and they are likely not. > I’m aware that low energy is a symptom of depression, but it doesn’t always render a person incapable of taking any of these steps. You are misinformed. It often does. > I think that some people who are in a bad place don’t know that these ‘natural’ remedies, especially when stacking them, can change someone’s mental state as powerfully as drugs do. Perhaps knowing this can help provide the motivation to try. Yeah, this is harmful psuedo-scientific thinking. Yes, those things can change them, but again, your assumption is faulty. They cannot change them if they cannot be enacted, which depression often prevents from happening. > Antidepressants can have some unpleasant side effects, so it’s worth trying alternatives first imho. But of course the best solution depends on the person and their unique situation. Yeah, they're terrible. That doesn't make your suggestions useful or insightful. Your posts amounts to "Have you tried not being depressed?" which is frankly insulting. Not only that, but you insult their and everyone they know's intelligence by thinking you could be the first one to think of these basic things (the same things advertised everywhere.)
