I am 26 years female. suffering from depression due to family problems. Have not took any medicine yet. What should I do?

Question

Dear lybrate-user, Thank you for reaching out. Since the cause of your depression is family issues, that must be addressed with a counsellor so they can help you find solutions. Meanwhile, here are a few things that might work for you:
1. Create a schedule and get into a routine and be sure to include at least one thing you enjoy in your day. It could be something as small as eating your favorite snack. 2. Exercise everyday since this helps your body feel better which in turn improves your mental health. Please consult privately for further advice. Good Luck.
