I have been undergoing from chronic depression for the last 3 years. If I start its treatment now, will it be cured completely? And if so, how long will it take?

Whether it will be cured completely cannot be predicted, but you will show significant improvement in your depressive symptoms and the chances of total return to depression free functioning is high. However how long you need medications cannot be predicted as it can be for a longer time too. Consult a psychiatrist. All the best.
