  • How long does treatment for depression typically last?

    Hi! Well that depends on a lot of things. Unfortunately there is no set timeline or "recipe" for treating depression (and other mental health issues). Sometimes medication is indicated (from a psychiatrist). The best thing you can do is find a therapist who is a good fit for you and start there. They will hopefully start you on a journey so you can start to feel better. READ MORE

  • Are there any non-medical treatments for anxiety?

    By "non-medical," I think you mean no medication? if yes, there certainly are things that you can try aside from medication. People with anxiety often find great relief in talking with a therapist. This allows for individuals to learn the triggers for their anxiety and also learn coping skills to manage it. Physical exercise is always a great idea, anxious or not. Yoga, meditation, Reiki, acupuncture, acupressure, and other Eastern practices can also help to reduce anxiety symptoms. READ MORE
