Frequently asked questions

Prescription antidepressants—such as SSRIs, SNRIs, and tricyclics—can amplify or cancel out the effects of other medications or supplements and put your health at risk. For instance, if you require an Epi-Pen, it may be best to avoid tricyclic medications, as they can increase the effects of the Epi-Pen and cause heart problems.

If you currently take medications or supplements or require an Epi-Pen, tell your provider so they can prescribe the right antidepressant for you.

Certain activities—like meditation, exercise, or massage—help increase serotonin and norepinephrine levels in the brain. However, results with these treatments aren’t consistent and may be short-lived. A better option may be to supplement traditional treatments with healthy lifestyle changes for sustained results. 

Depressive episodes create pathways in the brain that become easier to follow the more they’re used. Over time, this process can result in regular cycles of depression that become overwhelming. The best way to prevent future depressive episodes is to get treatment after the first one.
