Yes I agree, Drugs are point of last resort since from I have inquired in the field and apparently going one can lead to a stack of them later on in life as the loose effectiveness and way they work.

I would not be so quick to throw away "drugs" as they have the strongest efficacy compared to any method shared here.

Anecdotally, I used to follow a lot of these methods described here, but more specifically:

- Keeping a journal

- Reducing blue-light before bed

- Diet & excercise

- Meditations

I do agree that there is merit in each one of them, but absolutely nothing worked better than the "drugs" that was prescribed to me.

In fact, when first speaking to a specialist, it was like he already knew me. He knew my problems better than I did (goes to show that your problems aren't unique after all).

I do wish I had sought help sooner - my life changed dramatically in the time span of initial treatment to now.
