Treatment for Depression
Depression is not an illness that can be wished away. A person suffering from depression cannot solve his or her problems by simply shaking off the “blues” or showing a little more “backbone”. Too many people suffer in silence from depression worldwide and do not seek help or counselling.
Depression is very treatable like any other medical illness. Medications are the mainstay of treatment and therapy can help. One study showed that for those who took treatment depression lifted completely in seven out of ten people. For the rest, treatment relieved many though not all symptoms. Effective treatment can lighten up your mood, strengthen your relationship with loved ones, allow you to enjoy interests and hobbies again and makes you feel more like yourself again.
To find the right treatment, you may need patience and perseverance. Some people immediately hit upon a medication or therapy that works for them. For others, the treatment path takes a few trials of medication, changes in dosage of medication, or even a different doctor.
Today's advances in neuroscience are paving the way for better treatment for depression. Genetic discoveries and brain imaging techniques are helping doctors better understand the biology of depression
KETAMINE - Hope for people with serious and stubborn depression :
Treatment-resistant depression can deprive people of hope for the future and hope that they will never feel better. Ketamine can provide relief for people who have not found relief with any other treatments for depression. Given its efficacy in people considering suicide, ketamine may be lifesaving.
