OTHER TREATMENTS FOR DEPRESSION:

ECT may improve mood in those with severe depression or suicidal thoughts who don't get better with other treatments. It may also help treat depression in those who have psychotic symptoms.
2. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses pulses of energy to stimulate nerve cells in the brain that are believe to affect mood. There is some research to suggest that it can help relieve depression.
3. Light therapy may relieve depression symptoms in the winter time. However, it is usually not considered a first-line treatment.
