Hi pacots,

First of all, see a good MD if you haven't already and if you can manage it. There are many purely medical problems that can cause depression that will not be obvious to you at all. See



About 13:44 in, he talks about depression specifically and points out the any of the following can cause it:

1. Gluten -> Autoimmune disease thyroid
2. Acid reflux -> acid blockers -> vitamin B12 deficiency
3. Vitamin D deficiency
4. Took antibiotics -> Altered gut flora -> Changes the way peptides and neurotransmitters are produced
5. Love Sushi -> Mercury poisoning
6. Hate fish -> Omega 3 deficiency
7. Love sugar -> Prediabetes

Maybe it helps to post what you've tried and what has or hasn't worked?
