Who has suffered from depression and were able to get over it somehow. What was your secret?

St. John's Wort and the gym. Also use psilocybin mushrooms in small doses. If that doesn't work you need to blast off on DMT.
I had a traumatic head injury which landed me in a coma for a week and a half, it also exacerbated my mood swings and depression. The methods mentioned earlier gave me a new perspective on life. I haven't had suicidal thoughts since.
Depression is often just a result of poor health in general. If you're low energy and don't feel good then you're going to be unhappy and unmotivated.
The Human Upgrade podcast is a great way to learn ways to turn it around, and actually end up feeling unbelievably good, motivated and capable.
What about if you experienced a traumatic event that was devastatingly emotional where it PHYSICALLY hurt and you haven’t been able to recover.
I was there 3 years ago. Seemed like it just took time to heal (over a year for me), but I can see how something severe might not seem like it's improving. In that situation I'd try psilocybin in secluded nature. I'd also consider a major pattern break like moving, or a new job or hobby to force my brain into an unfamiliar rhythm.
