			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Depression is regarded as a mental state where the patient feels inadequate and is usually withdrawn from many day to day activities. People suffering from depression often experience mood swings and most of the times have pessimistic view about everything. They feel despair, sadness and commonly suffer from very low level of self esteem.</p>
<p>There are basically two popular methods of treating depression:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Psychotherapy</strong>:  When a person       is suffering from depression is treated psychologically, it aides the       patient in numerous ways. Under psychotherapy patients are offered       counseling which in most cases helps patient in understanding the root of       their depression. In cognitive therapy the patient’s depressed feelings       and emotions are worked on and give them a clear idea about positives. In       many cases cognitive therapy has been useful in clearing the patient’s       priorities and setting up right views about things around him/her. Just       counseling may provide temporary solutions but if combined with more       powerful methods to completely alter the lifestyle of the patient, the       results are positive and long term.</li>
<li><strong>Medication</strong>: Except for patients       who are under extreme depression or bipolar depression, medication is       commonly recommended. Anti depressants do not in actual cure the       depression but only help the patient control specific symptoms and feel       better. Antidepressants just aide the patient to remove certain weakness       such as insomnia, imbalanced diet, concentration problems etc which may       be hurdle in making any significant life style changes. Unless these       lifestyle changes are done, the depression continues and antidepressants       are the patient’s companions to support them in such changes by       preventing interfering weaknesses.</li>
