How Can Medication Help With Depression?

A proper diagnosis and personalized medication are necessary to cure depression. Depression is a serious mental health condition that affects thousands of people globally, but seeking timely help and medication can significantly improve one’s quality of life. Here is how medication helps treat depression:

1. It helps restore the balance of neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine) in the brain, often linked to mood regulation.
2. It can alleviate symptoms such as persistent sadness, fatigue, and lack of interest in activities, making it easier to function daily.
3. Helps normalize sleep patterns and appetite, which are often disrupted in depression.
4. Medication can make it easier to engage in and benefit from psychotherapy by reducing overwhelming symptoms.
5. Consistent use of medication can help prevent the recurrence of depressive episodes, promoting long-term recovery.

Types of Depression

Common types of depression that may need depression medication may include: 

1. Persistent Depressive Disorder

This condition involves a combination of mild and severe depressive episodes; for depression to be classified as ‘persistent’, a person should have it for at least two years. Individuals might have periods of normal moods that only last for two months. 

2. Psychotic Depression 

This form of depression is accompanied by false beliefs and hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there). These delusions and hallucinations have a typically depressive theme, such as guilt or illness. 

3. Postpartum Depression

It is the type of depression that occurs during pregnancy or after childbirth. It causes fatigue, intense anxiety, and sadness. During Postpartum depression, a mother can: 

• have difficulty bonding with the baby
• constantly feel like a bad mother
• have recurring thoughts about harming herself and the baby

4. Bipolar Disorder

While it is separate from depression, individuals with bipolar disorder experience extreme mood swings, including depressive episodes similar to major depression. These episodes can involve severe symptoms such as intense waves of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in most activities.

5. Seasonal Affective Disorder

This type of depression usually occurs in winter when there is less sunlight. Its symptoms are:

• emotional withdrawal
• weight gain
• increased sleep

It is related to less sunlight exposure, which decreases serotonin levels and disturbs a person’s circadian rhythm.
