Dear lybrate-user, depression is like any medical disease like diabetes and bp, aimed at sustenance and not cure. Please continue the same medicines and consult your doctor for change of dose or adding another medicine or cognitive behaviour therapy. Few alternate therapy like yoga and pranayama may be added to tablets. Few nutritional supplements like same, flax seeds and omega 3 fatty acids also can be added to medicines.
