I am 68 yrs. Old rtd. Person and now free from all direct responsibility of my family. I am suffering from depression for a long ie. 20-22 years ago. I am under treatment of a psychiatrist since 1995. I am taking medicins continuously and feel good. But if I did, n take medicins for 2-3 days, I feel depressed again. At present diagnosed medicines are--pexopram 0.5, solution 30, fluoxa 100 and neuro web-plus. Though prescription has been remain changed time to time. Now I have fedup by medicins due to so much long treatment as well as its bad side effects. My question is can I become free from this disease without taking medicines by change of lifestyle or by other pathology without side effects. I have written an article also on this problem, if you don<t mind and allow, I can send for your kind perusal.
