I’ve always worried about people on depression meds; there are all kinds of meds, like Prozac and whatnot, then if that’s not working — probably due to overuse — there’s Abilify. Are you


f’in kidding me? Stop these bad things now! Now! And check out some depression-fighting ear buds. Those going with the natural way — good diet and exercise — needing an extra boost can check


out the new development from Finnish company Valkee. Just by wearing them for 8-12 minutes, users can ease seasonal depression. The researchers believe that we need more light in the brain,
