I’ll get downvoted into oblivion for saying this, as the people on this sub like to do, but sometimes lifestyle changes are the key to curing depression. For me that meant moving to a warmer and sunnier climate and ceasing all alcohol and drug use and engaging in exercise daily. For you it might mean something else. If nothing else has worked to this point it might be worth the try. Best wishes.

I agree that those things can help. The trouble with depression is having absolutely no energy to exercise. I need help in getting out of this hole enough to lift my mood and energy level just enough so I can start doing these lifestyle changes.

I completely get it because Ive been there. But if you can somehow get yourself to get some exercise it’ll release natural endorphins and dopamine that’ll make you feel pretty good for a little while. Its helped me with depression and adhd as well.
