Study: “most clergy, including white evangelicals, endorsed a medical approach to treating depression in addition to a spiritual approach.”
“The study found that 87% of evangelical clergy said they would encourage their congregants to seek help from a mental health professional when suffering from depression. (85% of Black Protestants, 97% of mainline Protestants and 99% of Catholics agreed.)” - RNS

Even beyond the use of medications, changes in diet and exercise can sometimes be a big help. I am not suggesting that this approach is a cure all at all. Instead, I am suggesting that when treating depression or any emotional response, one size does not fit all.
