Does Anybody do Med Free treatment?

Life Worth Living, I have never used meds for my depression. My therapist suggested this to me twice but she said it was up to me. She was nice to listen to me. I told her no since I didn't think I could manage taking them as recommended and I did not want to cross the dose...

I tried Bach remedies for depression and anxiety. At times, I felt as if it was working well and then there were time when I felt it did nothing.
I also did DBT which helped me. It is hard work to do but once you keep at it, it is helpful.

Please know that not everyone experience side effects or the same side effects. Everyone is different and the meds would work differently for them. If you decide to start taking them, you can ask your doc to start you off on some low dosage and see how you feel.

I think that getting exercise and a proper diet and help too.

hi there. bi-polar disorders are very complex conditions. i feel it important to listen to the advice of your psychiatrist. natural treatments by all means are fine, but since you have or are being diagnosed i would recommend the stabilization of medication as a first port of call. it depends on your situation, the diagnosis and what your treating team recommend. healing thoughts from a long term bippy.
