I'm curious about the treatment of depression - can you tell me more about available treatments?

One of the most common treatments for depression is psychotherapy, which involves working with a mental health provider to better understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Another option is medication, which can help to manage the symptoms of depression. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, getting enough sleep, eating a healthy diet, having an adequate amount of social support, and reducing stress can all have positive effects. Finally, some people may find alternative treatments such as yoga, meditation, or acupuncture helpful in dealing with depression.
