Depression tends to have a chronic course but it is curable. However, it takes not just just the medications but also suitable changes in the lifestyle, learning of healthy coping strategies and healthy habits for complete recovery. I would advise you to consult and discuss with your treating Psychiatrist the options of various Psychotherapies and lifestyle modifications. Hope you find this informative.
