Asked Questions - looking at your mental health is as important as assessing factors affecting your physical health.
Antidepressants are a non-habit forming medical treatment for depression.
Just like vitamin supplements would be recommended for a body undergoing vitamin deficiency, antidepressants become an essential part of establishing physical and mental wellness. Particularly for women, trying to explain depressive symptoms can become frustrating and self-defeating. Often, there is no single 'reason' why symptoms appear. Instead, psychologists point out that there might be a combination of factors influencing depression. Factors such as heredity, biology, environment, personality style and reactions to stress may influence the onset of depression rather than one specific life event.
