Is science developing any valid cures for depression that don't entail masking the symptoms with SSRI's/SNRI's?

Like any pioneering tech we might see in the next few years with much better efficacy than meds?

Just quit my SNRI due to exhaustion, and boy is this hell. I just want to be normal

Do this already and have an amazing physique, been weightlifting since age 16 (29 now)
>eat healthily
Do this as well, reasonably at least
>fix your sleeping pattern
True I need to incorporate this
>go outside and feel the sun
And I could improve this as well

>stop drinking, stop taking drugs
Already do these. Very rarely ever drink, and might smoke weed once every other week or so

It’s called sex with an attractive woman every day. I used to be depressed then I flew to the Philippines and got a young hot wife. Guess what? I’m not depressed anymore.

Just think about, your brain is designed to survive AND reproduce. If you have survived to the age of 20, surviving is no longer relevant and reproduction becomes its number 1 goal. This is why children are happy, theyre only goal is survival. If you are not having sex OF COURSE youre going to receive negative feedback. Similarly, if you are a child and you’re starving constantly, you will also be depressed.

short answer: yes

long answer: yes but a lot of treatments are still experimental or reserved for depression resistant to treatment. There's electroconvulsive therapy, transcranial stimulation, ketamine infusions, even psilocybin has been brought up. Gold standard is still meds and cognitive behavioral therapy.

Been thinking of trying psilocybin and/or LSD. Have dealt with massive depression and anxiety since finishing my last month of accutane at age 16, nearly 13 years ago. Been on a few meds, which either helped boost my baseline the most modest amount at the cost of significant side effects (libido, excessive sleeping, hunger suppression or increase, etc) or the last one pristiq which has had the most benefit to curbing the depression and anxiety but at the cost of even worse fatigue, sleeping at least 9 hours, up to 12 a day.

Thank you for the input, truly. Been working nights so don't get home till 12-2am, but going to be waking up at 8 and immediately getting out of the house, preferably to workout early. Will nap 1-2 hours before work if I have to, to make sure I get an accumulative 8 hours of sleep.

Going to trip with either psilocybin or acid in a few weeks once im in a better headspace, of course at a very modest dosage with a sitter too.

And going to start therapy as well, going to try do everything in my power to naturally get to a place of stability without meds because fuck I hate the extreme lethargy, exhaustion and demotivation of being on meds.

Been working out with a 4x a week weight regimen, fairly demanding regimen of powerlifting and bodybuilding, going to add a 5th day of accessory/isolation lifts, and start jogging again 2x a week on my off days to make sure every single day im physical, and try to get laid habitually/find a girlfriend.

The whole medical/pharmaceutical field has not developed anything note worthy in like half a century. Right now people are hyping up crispr in hopes that it will be able to cure many diseases, but it will most likely end up like the whole of stem cell field. Such an embarrassing field.

"Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study of the phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor cilostazol as an adjunctive to antidepressants in patients with major depressive disorder | "(90%, 90%, 80%, respectively) vs placebo group (25%, 65%, 50% respectively) (p < 0.001)"

You probably don't even need to take it with an antidepressant. There's also NMDA antagonists like ketamine/nitrous/xenon, and even serotonergic psychedelics like LSD/shrooms if you're feeling risky.

Yes actually
Electroconvulsive therapy is very effective.
Sleep deprivation therapy has solid evidence behind it although it’s only done at specific hospitals because it’s very hard to make someone stay awake for 7 days straight.
Therapy has been shown to be as effective as medications and there is a synergistic effect between therapy and medications.

If antidepressant medications aren’t working for you ask your doctor about bipolar disorder, you may need to be on an anticonvulsant mood stabilizer or lithium rather than a traditional Ssri, snri or dnri.

Good goyim! You just need some permanent brain damage from electric shocks to your brain, and prolonged sleep deprivation to go along with your chemical lobotomy. That will fix your damaged and maladapted brain so you could function in this wonderful society.

In seriousness, though, the common sides that people get with SSRIs can't possibly be less depressing than one's baseline state, surely. I'd want to slit my wrists if I got some of those sides.

Underrated advice that a guy is very unlikely to get from the mental-health industry. I think even once or twice a week would suffice for returning many guys to a healthy mental state.
