Can depression go away?

Yes, depression can go away with the right treatment and support. For some people, symptoms improve over weeks or months, especially with therapy and medical care. However, depression can also return, which is why ongoing management is important. Building coping strategies, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and having strong social support can all help keep depression from coming back.
