ADVICE

Treating Anxiety and Depression

For mild cases of anxiety and depression, bibliotherapy and conversations with a primary care physician can be sufficient.
For more severe cases, a combination of mental health therapy (like CBT) and medication (like SSRIs) is recommended.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a rational approach backed by evidence and addresses cognitive distortions that can drive anxiety and depression symptoms.
Treatment should be tailored to the individual patient's needs and severity of symptoms.
"Feeling Good" by Dr. David Burns is a recommended resource for understanding CBT and cognitive distortions.
