Not a magic cure: Medications help manage MDD, but they are not a quick fix.

Options are varied: There are many different types of medications available, with varying effects and side effects.

Understand the side effects: Medications can cause nausea, dry mouth, or difficulty having sex.

Give it time: Medications can take 4-6 weeks to work. Don't be discouraged if you don't feel a difference right away.

Medications are not always needed: Medications are often taken over a fixed period of time.

Therapy is also important: It is also beneficial to take therapy (psychotherapy) along with medication.

Medications are safe: Medications taken as prescribed by a doctor are generally safe.

Not for everyone: Some people respond less to medication

Hope and recovery: Medications help reduce MDD symptoms and improve quality of life
