And my thyroid has been checked many times. that is the first thing any competent doctor should do.

Take Vitamin D, Fish oil, and Melotonin every day.
Took L Methylfolate for a long time.
B vitamins

I suppose I could have heavy metal toxicity but seems like a stretch.

I don't know anyone who would argue against diet, exercise, meditation, social activity, CBT, brain training, increasing self esteem, spiritual practices and so on. Every pdoc and therapist I have ever had has strongly encouraged those things. The problem is they often don't prevent depression and don't bring us out of it once in it. That is just a fact for many of us.
