Depression is one of the most common psychological disorders diagnosed in modern times. As a result, it is often not taken seriously enough, leading to potentially catastrophic consequences.
Depression treatment is vital if you suffer from this affliction. Without treatment, depression can lead to the destruction of relationships, the loss of employment, substance addictions, self-harm and even suicide.
There are various depression treatments with various degrees of success. Some of the most common treatments for depression involve medication.
Why Medication Is Not Encouraged
While I’m certainly not saying that medication is all bad, especially if that is truly what your doctors believe is best for you, it is a well-known fact that depression can be a major cause of substance dependency issues.
Although many substance dependency issues revolve around illicit substances and things like alcohol, many people also tend to develop a dependency on prescription antidepressant drugs.
These drugs can also cause a variety of unintended side effects ‒ some physical and some psychological, with many of them long-term. Therefore, wherever possible, depression should be treated with minimal medication involvement to minimise the possibility of developing side effects and dependency. What’s more, medication is also extremely expensive.
How Can Hypnosis Help?
