How Is It Possible for a Person to Leave Depression Behind Without Medical Help?

Question by Colin: How is it possible for a person to leave depression behind without medical help?
I did just this after 3 years of depression.

My depression culminated in an attempted suicide at age 10.

The modern view in medicine is that suicide is a consequence of failing to cope with “depression”.

There is plenty of information regards this topic online, but hardly any on how a person can overcome depression without medical help, this is why i want to know what you think is a persons reason/s for leaving depression behind without medical help.

Thanks.

I think that would depend on how severe the depression and what was causing it. Everyone gets depressed. EVERYONE. It just depends on a lot of factors. But yes, I think that you could hit a rut, stay down for a while, and then pull yourself back out if you know how to do that. But I think that some depression is so severe that without coping skills you probably couldn’t overcome it. That does not mean that you will definitely kill yourself. I think that there are many people that have lived there whole life with depression, never did anything about it, and didn’t die by commiting suicide.
