If you are reading this post kevin, I'm sorry, I am not advocating what you have said in your previous post because you just cannot go around telling people that they should stop taking their medication and go for a herbal alternative. That my friend is down right dangerous. By all means get the person to get another consultation with their GP to discuss the alternatives or someting else to treat the ongoing depression.
Psychosocial interventions are very good and it does not matter what talking therapy is suggested they will all have a theraputic effect. Any way terry I hope you do go back and see your GP, so that you can get back on track in dealing with this illness. Best regards Peter.

dont do anything by yourself, take note what other people are telling you on here, you shouldnt just stop any medication without gp/psychiatrist advice. Hope this helps
