Fact

Therapy + meds + lifestyle stack — best evidence

For moderate-to-severe depression, the highest-yield protocol combines: (1) therapy (CBT or behavioural activation, ~50% remission rate alone), (2) appropriate medication when indicated, and (3) the lifestyle stack on the previous card. Each is good; combined they outperform any single intervention by ~25 percentage points in remission rates. Lifestyle alone is usually sufficient for mild cases; clinical depression warrants the full stack.
