What to do with mild depression? Self-treatment for depression

We can alleviate mild depression through self-treatment. First of all, we need to establish a sense of challenge and believe that we can succeed. If necessary, we can also take some appropriate medications under the guidance of a doctor, but no matter what, we should adjust our mentality and actively treat it.

Build a sense of challenge

Developing a sense of challenge, learning to proactively resolve conflicts, and believing in your own success are the most basic methods for treating depression. You must abide by the order of life, arrive on time for dates, eat and relax according to the routine, and understand your own interest from a stable and regular life. Even when you are depressed, never give up your study and work, which is very helpful in treating depression.

Antidepressant treatment

It is currently the most important way to treat depression and is also a relatively convenient and easy way. Although there are many types of antidepressants and their mechanisms of action are different, each drug is only effective for about two-thirds of patients, and there is always a part of patients for whom it is ineffective.

Get your mind right

To treat mild depression, it is crucial to first have a correct understanding of mild depression, adjust your mindset, and actively cooperate with the treatment. However, some patients either do not take mild depression seriously and are unwilling to receive treatment, thinking that they can adjust themselves on their own, or they are unwilling to face it for fear of being laughed at, and fall into deep self-blame for suffering from mild depression instead of actively seeking treatment. Some patients with mild depression go for check-ups everywhere, and even if no problems are found, they still think that there is something wrong with their body, and are unwilling to admit that there are mental or psychological problems. This mentality has caused some patients to delay the best time for treatment, resulting in the disease being difficult to cure. It can be seen from this that having a correct attitude towards mild depression is the key to treatment.
