Treatment Options for Hidden Depression
Treatment options are the same for both hidden depression and typical depression. These may include:
– Psychotherapy, such as talk therapy, cognitive therapy, behavioral therapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy
– Medications, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, tetracyclic antidepressants, receptor antagonists, dopamine reuptake blockers, or monoamine oxidase inhibitors
– Lifestyle changes, such as stress management, improving relationships, sleeping well, meditation, regular exercises, or a healthy diet
In addition, you may seek support and help from many online resources and mental health communities. [5]
