10 A Complete Depression Relief Program Needs to Explore these Additional Factors: 1. Adrenal hormone deficiency these hormones from your endocrine system are vital to long term stress relief. If you have adrenal fatigue where your adrenals are not producing adequate amounts of these hormones, you chance of lapsing back into depression are increased substantially 2. Thyroid hormone deficiency - thyroid hormones and depression are intricately connected. Some medical experts believe that up to one-half of depression cases are due to unrecognized hypothyroidism (low thyroid function). You can examine for yourself whether you are likely to be low in thyroid hormone by a simple test you can conduct yourself at home. You will need adequate thyroid hormone levels for long term relief from depression 3. Sex hormone deficiency - the reproductive hormones - primarily estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone - act on the brain to directly affect mood and cognition. If your symptoms hint at low levels, your doctor can measure these with lab tests. If low, she can administer safe bioidentical hormone replacement. But you will have to be the one to take the initiative to pursue this possibility. 4. Carbohydrate intake and food influences - It is hard to realize how what you eat could have so much effect on how you feel emotionally. But diet is a huge issue for people who suffer from depression. To keep depression away in the long run, you need to understand which types of food make you more likely to get depressed. 5. Exercise - The Silver Bullet. You probably get tired of being told you need to exercise. It is especially hard to do for people who already are tired and unmotivated from their depression. But please understand these facts - in a 2007 clinical study (Otto, M. et al., 2007) exercise was found to be so effective in depression relief it surprised even the clinicians. Their study revealed exercise for depression compares favorably with traditional treatments for depression - that is, it is as effective as antidepressant drugs or cognitive behavioral therapy. 6. Stress Relief - The experts say that stress is the most important common factor in producing depression of all kinds and in turn affecting neurotransmitters. (Gordon, J., 2008). Any long term depression relief program must include a component on stress management techniques. 7.
