Alternative methods for depression. What's your experience?

Tweet

So many of us are running around trying to keep up with life that we let ourselves go nutritionally. For many years I suffered with depression and I was hospitalized. I observed patients eating the comfort foods (CARBS-White Starches). These people went round and round and just plain did not get better. There was healthy food available, but they were never educated about diet. When I left the hospital, I was on meds, which controlled my life.(never again) I was to see a Pshchologist, which upon my forgetting my appointment, belittled me, so needless to say, I never went back to him. I begun reading Prevention's vitamin guide, and made myself a list of what I thought I was lacking in. (we know our bodies better than anyone else) After suppliments awhile, I begun do better and that feeling of well being set in. I combined this with message therapy, and Spiritual counciling. Today, I take good vitamins, do Reiki, and Worhsip in church. There is always someone spiritual there to talk with. This is such different counciling than the Docs do. Prayer and love heal all ills. What experiences have you had with alternative methods?
