Depression is a medical condition that affects mood, interest, energy, sleep, and thinking. It is treatable. Supportive Ayurvedic approaches may help balance doṣas, calm the mind, and improve daily routines alongside your clinician’s plan.
Major depressive illness typically involves persistent low mood and loss of interest for ≥ 2 weeks, often with changes in sleep/appetite, poor concentration, fatigue, or hopelessness. Effective treatments include counseling/psychotherapy, medicines, and lifestyle changes.
In classical terms, disturbances of Rajas and Tamas with Vāta-dominance may manifest as low mood and restlessness. Support aims to stabilize routines (Dinacharya), nourish tissues, calm the mind (Manas), and balance doṣas—alongside professional mental health care.
Ayurvedic measures are complementary and not a substitute for medical/psychological treatment.
If you or someone you know is at risk of self‑harm or feels unsafe: seek emergency help immediately (local emergency number) or contact a trusted clinician/hospital. You are not alone and help is available.
