What helps you with anxiety and depression?

Do you prefer medication or therapy? I was referred to somewhere last year but they got me on some medicine before therapy so I gave up. I wanted to talk to someone. Not take medicine.

what helps me: vit D3 (had the most horrible SAD before taking - tested very deficient before starting), magnesium malate, plenty of water - in the absence of all sodas with artificial sweeteners and drinks containing caffeine, and strength-building and aerobic exercise on a regular basis.

if i ever lose the ability to workout, it wouldn't be good at all. recently started taking l-ysine to benefit my workout capacity, muscle retention, and recovery. was pleasantly surprised to find it definitely has a lovely calming effect which, in turn, naturally lifts mood

it's always a combination of things on an individual basis
