Hi thanks for asking question.

The only drug therapy is not cure for depression.

Overall daily modification of activity with behavioural therapy needed.

You have not mentioned reason for depression.Try to avoid situation that lead into depression.

Do daily some enthusiastic activity like sportz , movie etc.

Everyday or alternate day meet with friends and relatives.

Do regular yoga and meditation.

Regular exercise is natural antidote for depression.

While free visit the garden and feel relaxed under tree.

As far as drug is concerned fluoxetin like drug can be taken and if needed electroconvulsive therapy also available.

Wish you good health.
