While natural treatments for depression are available, it should always be noted by your doctor if you are suffering from or have a history of medical conditions like heart diseases, Parkinsons disease, worm infections, HIV or AIDS, allergies, anorexia, myalgia, neuropathy, nausea, diarrhea, anemia, hemophilia and edema. Take caution in using natural or herbal treatments especially when the depressed patient is pregnant or is planning to be pregnant soon.
Adverse Reactions to be Expected
Going herbal and natural does not mean that these treatment options do not have adverse effects.
Moreover, mixing natural or herbal treatments for depression in combination with other antidepressants may have different adverse reactions. So take note again if you are currently or recently have been taking pharmacological medications or substances like MAOIs or monoamine oxidase inhibitors, SSRIs or selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, tricyclic medications, medications for losing weight, drugs for Parkinsons disease, barbiturates and tranquilizers, antihistamines, alcohol, IV drugs, and antibiotic medications.
Natural treatments for depression may or may have not undergone extensive testing and trials in clinical environments. Consult your doctor at all times in the use of these natural treatments. These herbal treatments must be taken only after your doctors evaluation and prescription. Moreover, doctors instructions must be strictly adhered to.
Other Natural Option: Condition Yourself
With self-conditioning, you teach your mind how to react to certain stressors. If you fear socializing because you think you cant make eye contact during conversations and people will regard you as untrue to your words, condition yourself to not fear eye-to-eye contact.
Everyday, for just five to ten minutes, tell yourself that failing to make eye-to-eye contact does not make you less of a person. After months or even years of conditioning yourself, you will believe what you say, that you are unafraid of eye-to-eye contact because you have taught yourself to think so.
Also, while you do conditioning, practice how to do eye-to-eye contact. Do it first on your own, in the mirror. Then when you are comfortable looking straight into your eyes, ask a family member to practice you with eye-to-eye contact.
What Is Good for You?
Natural treatments for depression may work for you best if the degree of your depression is still mild. However, if you are already suffering from major depression with psychotic manifestations, natural treatments wouldnt be sufficient; you will most probably need medications to go with other forms of therapy.
