There are currently 5 ways to help people with depression get rid of this disease.
1. Psychotherapy
2. Antidepressants
3. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) bob the robber
4. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
5. Complementary medicine
Are you new to taking medication? I don't understand why you have been taking it for 2 months without any effect. Normally I see it will have changes and make the patient comfortable after 1 week.
You should see a doctor for advice. People who are depressed and taking medication absolutely should not stop taking medication suddenly.

Many antidepressants can take several weeks (sometimes 6-8 weeks) to show noticeableslope effects. If it’s only been two months, your medication may still be adjusting in your system.
If you’re not seeing improvement, it’s important to let your doctor or psychiatrist know. They may need to adjust the dosage or try a different medication. Mental health treatments are often personalized, and finding the right one can take some time.
