Default How to get over depression without use of prescription drugs? - 01-03-2009, 04:41 PM

I had a baby 8 months ago and was monitored because of post-partum depression. While that has gone away, I seem to have become severly depressed from things other than the baby. I lack any motivation to do things, even eating is a struggle. I do eat but usually not until I have been starving for hours. I just don't want to get up until it's so bad that I'm in pain. I at one point had to get treatment for panic disorder. It was gone for awhile but is back again. My main problem is not being able to become motivated enough to do daily activities. I know exercise will help me but I can't do that when I have no energy.I hate prescriptions. Please don't suggest any of those to me. Any herbal or natural remedies would be great though. Thanks.

Seriously, GO SEE A DOCTOR. IF IT'S THAT BAD YOU NEED HELP.

You could look into acupuncture, Tui Na massage, reflexology or Shiatsu, they can all lift me from the dolldrums.Aromatherapy oils and chinese herbal medicine can be helpful too.And will power ... a lot of it ...

Read "You Can Cure Your Depression" By Dr. Blair Masters. It's all about natural supplements and other natural, holistic methods of curing depression. It also has a lot of information on the causes of depression so you can cure the causes and not just the symptoms.
