One thing therapists and doctors NEVER discuss when they diagnose someone with depression is nutrition! Today's lifestyle is almost designed to destroy the nutrients your body needs to produce neurotransmitters! Stress, caffeine, medicine, lack of sleep - all contribute to a shortage of B-complex, C and E; in addition, in order to absorb and utilize some nutrients, you need others available - there are many resources, but one of the better ones I've found is Earl Mindell's Vitamin Bible. You can look into symptoms, or vitamins, or minerals, or herbs, to identify things that might help with whatever your personal situation happens to be.
